Big Girl

Before I've had time to blink,

we've gone from this (for 21 months):

(at 7 months)

to this (for one month):

to this (her 1st night)!

{sigh}

she had a wonderful 1st night in her big girl bed. she cried for maybe 5 minutes and was asleep in 10, no getting out of bed. she piled herself up at the very top of the bed on the very flat pillow i put in there for her. i am very thankful for our video monitor! i just can't get over how tiny she looks in this big twin bed! oh how my baby girl is growing up before my eyes! i'm so proud of her for handling this transition so well. tomorrow night might be a completely different story, but i am thankful for tonight!

Here's her new dresser. the drawer pulls finally came, only after double the time estimated by the eb@y seller. needless to say, I won't be sharing the store with you here; but i do love how they turned out! sorry the pictures are so dark. i couldn't seem to get enough lighting in there.
