Gretel's new sleeping arrangements!



A couple of weeks ago, Johnny took off her crib railing (good suggestion Hab) and he removed the springs so her mattress would just rest on the drawer of her crib. (Her crib wasn't a convertible one) It has worked out really well! We cleared out her room so there was no bookshelf to climb on or books and toys to play with. It looks very empty and also very clean!!
Johnny put a soft blankie on the floor the first couple of nights just in case she didn't make it back in bed and happened to fall asleep on the floor. But she didn't end up needing it, so that was nice.

She LOVES this "No No Yes Yes" book-thanks mom!

After we lay her down in bed, she will sometimes run toward her door trying to follow us while crying. But other times she's really good and just stays in bed.
If she's ever out of bed because of playing/running around her room or because she's upset, she always makes it onto her bed to sleep. So that makes us feel good!! I can't believe it...our baby is growing up!

I'm so glad it worked! What a good girl to find her way back to her beddy-bye all by herself!
