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.
