Big girl bed!

We ask Jess every so often if she wants to get a big girl bed. She always says "No" and that she likes her crib. We have never been bothered and never pushed as we know there will be an end to the crib some time (all too soon for that matter). They grow up all too fast without our help.

We went over to Jessica's best friends house (her third cousin Mason) and she saw that he had a big boy bed. She decided at that time that she wanted one now too. I asked her what kind of bed she would like and she said a princess bed. Well...I have never been one to buy into the characters. Not my thing. Guess what though...it's her thing so I set out in search of a princess bed. Didn't have to go far as Babies R Us had just what she wanted. It also came with a bench and toy box. YAY...more for mom to put together...lol.

Certainly isn't a high quality piece of furniture and before she was born I surely would've said that it was tacky. The smile on her face when she stayed her first night in it outweighed any feelings that I may have had for the furniture. She is only little once and if she wants a princess bed then, by George, that's what she'll get!



Peacefully sleeping little princess = Happy parents!
