Big Girl Bed

We are in the process of converting the kiddos' cribs into daybeds. I am so frightened to think of the three of them roaming freely about the upstairs, but crib jumping seems quite dangerous! We decided to convert one crib a weekend for the next few weekends. Last night, we started with Addie, the kiddo who we thought would be most difficult to keep in bed. Tears started streaming down her face when she saw her newly configured bed. But, within five minutes, we had her convinced that the new big girl bed was very special. She told me that "she needed to try it." So, we put everyone in bed, and then Derek and I stood in the hallway waiting for Addie to escape her new bed. But, nope, she stayed there all night and woke up with a big smile on her big girl face 11 hours later.
