Chloe's Big Girl Room

Well we tried to put it off as long as possible but it was finally time to change Chloe's bed. She refused to sleep in her crib. For the past few weeks she has been sleeping with us, or on her crib mattress on the floor of her room. We had to lay with her every single night (which I always said I would never do). We now have her big girl bed so we can now try working on a better bed time routine.




Here is what her bedroom looks like now.

Chloe is modeling on her new bed. Don't let it fool you. She enjoys making the bed and playing on it, but it was quite the crises trying to make her sleep in it alone (she doesn't care where she sleeps if we lay with her. The first night she got her bed, she went alone, but it was 10:30 , and she was too tired to care. Tonight, on the other hand, was a different case. She cried so hard that she threw up (like she did in her crib before we stopped laying her in it). It took about 15 minutes to calm her, then I laid down with her. She was fine until I got up. She started to whimper, so I sat on her toy trunk. I told her I would stay there until she fell asleep. I still had to be there, but at least not in bed with her. Maybe tomorrow I can stand outside the door. It is a step in the right direction. Hopefully!


I'll keep you posted.
