The big move

Leah moved from the bassinet in our room to her crib in her room on September 13th. It was a pretty big night around here. I wasn't too sure that I was up for it but as you can see, it was time. She was beginning to touch the sides of the bassinet while she was sleeping.

She went from being a big girl in a small bed to such a small girl in a big bed.


Of course I cried when we put her down that 1st night (are you shocked? I didn't think so). Jeff said I confused him because he thought I would be happy to see her look so small again. His 1st mistake was trying to follow the emotional logic of a new mom, ha-ha. We have a full size bed in the nursery so I made the adjustment by sleeping in there the 1st few nights. I am now happy to report that she sleeps in her bed and I sleep in mine. She is doing wonderful. She sleeps about 6 hours and gets up to eat but then goes right back down for a few more hours. We are finally getting into our morning routine as well. She wakes up such a happy girl (she must get that from me because Jeff is anything but a morning person). I love our one on one time 1st thing in the morning.
