One Week Follow Up On The Big Girl Bed

Emma loves her big girl bed. She always wants to climb in herself saying, "I do it". When she is in bed she stays too! She waits until we come and get her after her nap or in the morning. She really is the greatest most laid back little girl. When we moved in the new furniture we took out the crib and the rocking chair. I will have to say that the only downfall with doing that is now she doesn't want to rock and sing songs any more. I've tried rocking her in the living room rocking chair and she just wants to go and climb into her big girl bed. Not that I am really complaining that my daughter actually wants to go to bed. But it is sad that I don't have that snuggle time anymore. I tried to get into her bed with her to lie there and sing song or just snuggle, yeah, that was a no go. She told me to get out, literally. I have tried several times and every time she tells me, "no, mama, get off." Oh, well, maybe after she gets over the initial excitement of having a big girl bed she will snuggle more. I sure do miss it. But I am so proud of my little baby growing up!
