We sold Sophie's crib Wednesday on Craigslist. I have been having a hard time preparing her big girl room as many of you know. I have had her crib for sale for 6 weeks so I was in no hurry to transition her to a regular bed. Now that all changed when the person came Wednesday evening to pick up her crib! It only got better as the store was out of the box spring for her set so she had to sleep on just the mattress! Sophie was a little confused at first but when we put the full size mattress in her room she realized what we were doing.
My question is what were we doing...? What were we thinking...? When she was in her crib she never thought to get out. Once we put her to bed in her new bed she realized she could just walk out the door-as evidenced by getting out 8 times in the first 10 minutes! She is doing better now but also perfecting her technique as well. First it was the morning that she thought we were asleep and she went to the kitchen and got the chocolate chip cookies I baked the night before. If only I had my camera at that moment as she carried them to her seat at the table and started to take the lid off! I am sure she was thinking "everyone is asleep and I can eat all of these!" She was quite disappointed when she saw me standing there.
Tonight after 4 nights I thought things were getting better. I checked on her before bed and noticed something in her hands-Playdoh! She got up without us knowing (we were in the next room) and went to the pantry and got the Playdoh and took it back to her room and played with it in bed. I am sure she thought she got away with it and felt quite victorious-so much so she forgot to hide the evidence! She fell asleep with Playdoh in both hands and this time I had to take a picture to remember this moment and the look of how perfect she looks in her big girl bed with Playdoh crumbs. I do not even want to guess what she will be into in the morning...
