We should have purchased this a LONG time ago. After eating at Firehouse last night, we went to Target to get Emma a toddler bed. She slept in her bed great the first 10-11 monts of her life. Then she started fussing if we put her in it, so instead of fighting with her for an hour, we would just put her in bed with us. She would fall asleep pretty quickly and we would all go to bed happy instead of tired from trying to get her to sleep in her crib. But, we were tired of waking up some morning feeling like we got beat up during the night by her little sweet feet. I was not sure if the toddler bed would even make a difference, but did think she really did not like being confined in the crib and liked the feel of a bed better so it was worth the money to see.
We got home and Scott started putting it together. After it was put together, she played on it for a little while.
She fell asleep pretty quickly but was a little fussy (think it was because she was not feeling good). She slept all night and if she did wake up, we would make the shhhh sound and she would go right back to sleep.
Scott took this next picture this morning when he woke up. It looks to me like she was sleeping very well in her new bed.
Tonight after getting home and bathed, I put her in the toddler bed and sat on the floor beside it rubbing her back. It took all of 2 minutes for her to fall asleep. It is such a great feeling!!!! We should have bought that cute little bed way before now.
