Hannah Graduates from Cot to a Bed!








Hi All,

Hope you are all well?

We finally bought Hannah her very own bed as Ethan is gtting too big for the crib and needs the big cot and Hannah is getting too big for the cot!!

Well, what sports we had.. The bed arrived at our house on Tuesday and on Tuesday evening when daddy got home, we decided to put the bed up in Hannahs room, but we had to take the cot apart so we could move it from her room into Ethan's room because it is too big to fit through the doorways.. Well, as daddy starting taking the cot apart, Hannah started crying unconsoliably and all she wanted was her cot. Its amazing how these little ones build attachments to things.

I think we thew this little girl completely out of her comfort zone. Anyway, the tears started going away when we put the bed up in her room and put brand new bedding on for her. It became a game and she wanted to climb on and off the bed and jump on it.. Finally, bed time arrived and i started to dread what lay ahead.

I put Hannah in her bed and she was more than willingly to climb into her brandnew bed.. Stephan and I thought that this is gong well but then our little girl discovered that a bed doesn't have sides to keep her in like the cot and she climbed out of bed about 4 times to say " Hi Mommy" and run back to her room. After the 4th attempt of putting her back into the bed she fell sound asleep and slept through the entire night..

I cleaned the big cot for Ethan and put new bedding in there for him too.. He too enjoyed the new space the cot had to offer and also slept through!! Both my babies now sleep through the night.... How wonderful!

See the pictures i took of them after they had falledn sound asleep!!

God Bless

Love
Us
