This week was kind of a quiet week in regards to what’s happening in Aanika’s world…only 1 real big event. I mentioned a while ago that we were trying to get her bedroom put together, décor-wise (it’s being decorated ‘adult enough’ to be a second guest room). No character theme rooms yet! Well, we’ve made a huge transition for her – she’s in a big girl bed now! We couldn’t really go forward with our plans for the room until we knew what kind of arrangement we would do with a real bed. So, about 2 weeks ago we made the leap and did it – the crib was taken apart and we did a few nights of a test run with a mattress on the floor to see if she’d stay in the bed without getting up (success!). She thought her new arrangement was pretty great seeing she could play on the bed with her best friend, Teddy, the big yellow bear. We did decide to put up some bed rails on it though because she’s a total wiggle-butt when she’s sleeping. It’d be quite a long drop if she wiggled into the wrong spot! So after a few practices of getting in and out, she’s become quite comfortable with it. It’s so cute, when she’s done sleeping, she knocks on her door until we come and get her! I have to admit though, I am NOT looking forward to the day when she can turn that doorknob.
