Leighton's Big Girl Room

In November, we moved Leighton into her big girl bed!  I was nervous about this transition and had originally planned on doing it in January.  Well, her bed arrived much more quickly than I anticipated, so November it was!  She did a great job!  She did get out in the beginning, but her Daddy and I worked with her and within a few nights, we had a new routine and she was staying in bed.  Nap time was what I was most anxious about.  This is such a crucial time for Leighton and Mommy.  Nap time actually went even more smoothly than bedtime!  Now, we have had the occasional day where she is up and down, but I just leave her in her room for "quiet time" and she usually ends up falling asleep at some point!  This happens once or twice a month, but for the most part, she goes right to sleep (knock on wood that this continues!)  I'm really glad we ended up making this move in November versus January because I have enjoyed having January to focus on spending time with Leighton and getting last minute baby stuff organized. 

Here are a few pictures of her room~






My sister painted this precious stool for Leighton for Christmas

I had this made for above her bed~ it says, "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep"~ underneath is the bunny picture that my mom painted that was over her crib :)


Sweet girl!
