Big Girl Bed!

Evey slept in her big girl bed in her own room! BACKGROUND- We lived in a one bedroom apt for the first 1 1/2 yrs of her life so naturally her crib was right next to othe bed. So we bought our first home and set up her crib in her own room, around 4 or 5am she would cry n we would bring her to bed with us. The eventually she started climbing out of her crib (not safe). So we converted her crib to a day bed and with no side rails she naturally would sneak into our bed at night while we were asleep. So for our sleeping convienience we put her matress beside our bed and thats where she has been sleeping. So I decided to bite the bullet and we had her help us take her matress to her "big girl bed" and started our new night time routine (she had no clue what was going on lol) and the first night went relatively smooth, cried a little then slept through the night. Last night cried a little and then woke up at 5am, I was SO tempted to let her sleep in our bed for the morning but I sucked it up and walked her back to her room and sat with her till she fell asleep. I am such a push over when it comes to Evelyn! When I walked out of her room she yelled WAIT! NO MAMMA COME BACK COME BACK! WAAAIIIT! It was hard for me, I think I had just as much seperation anxiety as she did! So hooray for sleeping in her own room!
