She is growing up!

As most of you know I am a Co-sleeping momma. I didn't plan on this but when Jaden came home I followed her cues and this is what she was comfortable and used too so I did it. I am so glad I did it because I really think that it helped her bond to me. She is extremely attached to me and I am very thankful. But I knew the day was coming where she was just going to have to get out of the bed. There have been many attempts but they only lasted a night. But while we were at the Dr. on Monday he told her she needed to sleep in her own bed. She must have really taken it to heart because that night she decided she was going to sleep in her bed!(which is in our room). It took her a while to fall asleep and I had to keep telling her she could do it and finally at midnight she was out!

I even have proof. Sorry for the bad photo but it was with my cellphone.
The next day I talked about how big she was and how great it was to have your own bed. So she slept in it again and woke up at 4 and got in the bed with me. This is ok I don't mind it. The next night she was not as happy about it and told me she did not want to be a big girl anymore but a baby. But I made her stick to her guns and after much drama she fell asleep again in her bed. She also woke up again at 4 and got in the bed. Last night she was still not happy but went to sleep after telling me how mad she was and then did not wake up until 7:45! And only because her daddy was being loud. She climbed in the bed with me and sleep for about two more hours! So it looks like she is growing up and finally is out of our bed except for early morning which is fine with me because I really miss my snuggle time!!!
