A bittersweet goodbye...

to the crib that is. Yes, its true. Samantha has graduated to a "big girl" bed. We got her bed and set it up yesterday afternoon, and she couldn't have been more excited. I was a little worried about how the girls would do together last night, seeing as they could both escape from their beds. They did great. We put Sam down first. She just snuggled right in under her sheet and happily fell asleep. Same with her nap today. I have been very lucky in that the girls take to transitions very easily. Emily was the same way with her bed. She gave up the Binky in a day. We are currently working on the Binky with Sam. We should have those out of the house by next week.
It makes me a little sad to see these things go. All the little signs of the very fleeting time when the babies are actually babies. But lets face it, they are way more fun the older they get. Samantha has recently become a fan of the word poop, and Emily thinks everything is "so funny mommy!" Their little personalities come out in full force, just when you least expect it.
I look forward to keeping you updated on all of their daily jokes and trouble.
