Our baby is growing up!

My friends, we have come to the end of an era! No more cribs for us!

Cadence is now big enough to sleep in her own big girl bed!!!!

Our neighbors actually took the lead on this one and put their daughter in a big girl bed first. Cadence really seemed to like it because she could get in and out of it by herself. So on Sunday when it was time for her nap Ski asked her if she wanted her own big girl bed and she said Yes.

Well off went the side of her crib.

Oh she was so proud! She was so tired that afternoon that she went in there all by herself, shut her door and fell asleep in her crib without even having to tell her it was naptime. Of course it was also 5:00pm - a little bit TOO late to be taking a nap but I didn't have the heart to wake her up since I was so proud that she went in there all by herself.

Bedtime was just as easy. We actually thought we would have a hard time because she took such a late nap so we said she could sleep with us if she wanted. Instead she told me she wanted to sleep in her big girl crib and led the way to her room!

There have never been two parents more proud then Ski and I!
