Big girl bed

Last week our little girl, Elaine, would just cry at bed time. She did not want to lay down in her crib and go to sleep. No matter how tired she was, if you laid her in the crib she would cry. One night it was for three hours. It was crazy and we weren't getting any sleep. Finally on Saturday we removed the side of her crib and sure enough that night she laid right down and went to sleep. The only problem is she moves around a lot while she's sleeping. Saturday night she rolled off her bed three times. She never really woke up, just cried a little and then kept sleeping on the floor. It was funny.
One time when Josh went up she was laying half under her bed.
On Tuesday (July 1) morning we found her sleeping in the middle of her floor. She loves being a "big girl" and likes her bed.
One last comment about this. Henry asked me what we were going to do with the side of her crib that was removed. I explained that it would go in the garage for now. Henry said, "Well Mommy, perhaps we could make it into a new bed." Yep, he used perhaps correctly.
