Big Girl Bed

Last weekend Papa TT and I decided it was time for Tilly to graduate to a big girl bed. We got her the same kind of bed as Tigger, in a different color. She'll be in a big girl bed and will share a room with Tigger.

So last Saturday Papa TT got the bed out. Both kids got involved putting it together.






No fear:



And here is their new room! We still need to get Tilly a comforter and I really want to change the rug in the room, but it's looking pretty good!

We tried putting them in bed for the first time when we had friends over for dinner. That didn't work because they kept getting up and playing together and Papa TT and I were trying to enjoy the company of our friends. So we put Tilly in her crib and tried again the next day. Later that night we found Tigger asleep in Tilly's bed. He had pulled his pillow and comforter over there and fallen asleep!

The next night went much better with Papa TT and I able to give full attention to monitoring compliance with the 'Stay in your bed' rule. They now love sleeping in the same room but still take a little time to fall asleep. Ironically Tilly is the worst offender at getting out of bed constantly. I guess she's just so excited with her new found freedom.

Happy Thanksgiving

Papa TT and I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! We had a wonderful feast! Though we didn't travel so didn't see any family, we enjoyed the time with just the four of us.

Papa TT and I prepared quite a feast - Papa TT did the turkey, stuffing and green bean casserole. I did the mashed potoatos and pecan pie (my best ever, according to Papa TT).

After we finished eating the kids took turns saying 'Happy Thanksgiving.' So cute!

Thanksgiving Art

Tigger and Tilly both made Thanksgiving cards at school/day care so I filmed them telling me about them. I'm not sure which is cuter - Tilly knowing how to say her name ('Na-tha') or Tigger drawing a pacifier for Tilly.
