Big Girl Bed for Zoe!

Zoe Claire got her big girl bed this week. We can hardly believe what a big girl she has become. She had some practice in Florida on a cot, but now she has her own bed just like her brother!

The bed frame is part of the set from when Zadie was a little boy and it matches Mama's old furniture that we have saved for both Zachary and Zoe. We have fun pokla dot sheets and hearts on her duvet and a bed rail to keep her safe at night. Since she has been climbing in and out of Zachary's bed for so long, she knew just what to do (at night and in the morning). She was a little sad to see her crib go, but excited about her "New Bed" just the same.


All her "guys" slept with her, including the pink baby who wanted to be under the covers next to her. Also she had everyone, Zachary, Mama, and Daddy come in for a snuggle. We all thought her bed was quite comfy.

Zachary knows the rules about jumping on the bed, but felt compelled to test out the bed springs on Zoe's new bed anyway. We later moved the shelf you see on the wall in case the kids continue to "break the no jumping on the bed rule"

Good night kisses from big brother helped Zoe settle in for her first night in her new big girl bed. She came out a few times but slept in it all night and even had Winston (our cat) join her to keep her company. Hooray for Zoe's journey through this rite of passage.
