Such a Big Girl!

Last week tragedy struck our house, Makenna's best friend Binks broke. While I was glad that binky broke so that I didn't have to decide when to take it away, it has been horrible every night since for Makenna. She has mourned its loss for the past 5 nights by screaming for a few hours until finally falling asleep. Steve and I were starting to dred bedtime.

Since sleeping hasn't been going very well we decided yesterday that we might as well put up her toddler bed, deal with a new bed and no binky at the same time (She has still been in her crib, I didn't want to give up that control) and she's going to be too big if we keep waiting.


So we went to work. Last night when she was going to bed she got her dolly and climbed right into bed without a fuss! I couldn't believe it.



These last two pictures were taken this morning. She loves her bed! Hopefully last nights luck continues.

I'm glad you had such good luck. Tell me, did the binky break on its own, or was there any parental involvement?
