Big Girl Bed Update

For those of you interested in Emily's progress in the big girl bed, she is doing really well. On Saturday, she screamed blood-curdling screams for a couple of minutes after we put her down for her nap (no Elizabeth to comfort her), but was so tired that she fell asleep rather quickly. Saturday night, she broke for the door when it was time to get into bed, shaking her head vehemently and Sunday night was a repeat performance; but both nights, she went down within in a few minutes. Last night, she actually went right over to her stool when Elizabeth started up the ladder - we helped her climb into bed and she laid down without so much as a whimper - of course, Elizabeth cried for a while, but we can't have it all, can we?!?!

The girls are not yet officially sharing the room, as we still have all of Emily's things in the nursery. I have a February trip to New Hampshire planned and while we are away, Lee will likely transform the room from "mine" to "ours" and begin the process of converting the nursery to a guest room.
