She's a Big Girl

The hubby has been off work this week. So I have been doing a lot around the house that I usually don't get to get done when he is working. Well one of those was when Whitnee was at MeMaw and Pa's house I went through her clothes and her toys. Well I got the crazy idea of changing her crib to a toddler bed/daybed. Whitnee has never tried to climb out of her crib, or climb in it. I feel that she probably would have stayed in it forever if we would have let her. Well in the midst of cleaning her room it seemed like it would give us more room if we moved it and bad it her "big girl bed". Well thankfully Michael didn't fight it and well my little Princess is no longer so little. :( Thankfully she has done really well sleeping in it, we haven't had to put her back in it at night yet. She does her normal fight sleep act that she did when she was in her crib. We however haven't taken a nap in it yet. I feel that will be the hardest one. She will probably get up and play. Mommy and Daddy will just have to be strong and help her remember who is boss. :D Oh yeah, it was the sweetest thing, when I showed her the picture of her big girl bed she said "So I can get in it all myself" I said "yes ma'am" and she said "oh mommy thank you" It was the sweetest thing ever and just melted my heart! Here is a picture of her sleeping in her big girl bed the first night, as well as the secound night.

Sorry the pictures look so bad. I'm amazed every day by how big she is. She is so smart and such a blessing to Michael and I.

Today we got the pleasure of going to the mall with my brother, Bailey Grace, and Brittany. It was so much fun and I look forward to many more outings with them especially as Bailey Grace gets older and when my sister has her little girl.

With Thanksgiving comeing up I have become more aware of the many blessing God has give my family. I am truely blessed and don't thank Him enough for what He has done. I can't wait to spend the day with my side of the family, and then spend Friday putting up our Christmas tree. I say this all the time, this really is my favorite time of the year. I don't like the cold but I LOVE Christmas. I enjoy it even more now that Whitnee is getting older and gets so excited about the little things. I look forward to seeing her face on Christmas morning.

Hope you all have a great weekend! We will spend it cheering on our Hogs! Woo Pig Sooie!
