For some time now, Bess has been asking to have a bed like Wy’s. She has been crawling out of her crib for over a year and a half but we just haven’t felt the urgency to actually get the tools out and do something about it! Finally, Bess and her sweet little voice and puppy dog eyes, convinced her father- It Was Time! So away the two went! It was quite the excitement!
Just like that, the crib was no longer and Bess stood before her big girl bed. She was (for the moment) excited about this new change in her world.
But just as quick as the crib front came off, so did the change of Bess’ mood occur! She became so upset with us for doing this to her bed!
And mad turned into completely and utterly heartbroken. She was honestly holding on to the front of the crib sobbing for Bubba to put it back on. She was literally devastated because she thought Ben was getting her bed. So back on the front of the crib went.
But clearly taking a bath and not thinking about the events of the crib change were much needed for Bess. Although Bubba had put the front back on, she decided after bath she really did want Ben to have her crib so she begged her father who she has so tightly wrapped, to “fix it da da”. And of course, he obliged!
Only this time… we had a happy Big Girl in a Big Girl Bed!
Now, despite the fact that she has had a few nights practice in her new bed, we are still finding her in the floor most nights. BLESS… soon she will get it! Thankfully it doesn’t wake her up!
My sweet babies are changing and growing so fast! Such a bittersweet sight!
