We Did It!

I have been procrastinating about moving Kayla out of her crib - she's only climbed/fallen out of it 2x since Nov I think. She is 2.5 yrs old though so I knew I couldn't avoid it forever! We did it today to start with naptime. Her crib transitions to a toddler bed - you take one side of the railings off and put 2 small rails on the ends so she can climb in and out. I was prepared for a battle at naptime and was pleasantly surprised at how well it actually went! She did climb out 2x and I went in and told her to climb back into bed. We leave her door open a crack and I stood outside peeking in every few minutes. A few times I had to tell her to lay back down it was time to sleep - she looked like she was on the verge of making her getaway! After that whenever she saw me she would lay down without me having to say anything. Within 1/2 hr of her being put down for her nap she was out! yay! I can only hope each time goes as smoothly! Here is a picture to capture this milestone...yes she falls asleep with her arm in her mouth and no blanket...she always throws it out!
