Maryn's Big Girl Room

Maryn was starting to outgrow her toddler bed so Josh and I decided it was time to move to a big girl bed :) We went to the store and she enjoyed the process on laying on the many mattresses and trying to help us pick one out. About a week later, we had the mattress and we spent a Friday evening putting her new room together! We transformed her toddler bed into a full size bed with new bedding! Little did we know that we should have measured the depth of the mattress!! It is so high! She needs a stepstool to get into bed!! After a few laughs, she just decided that it's her "princess" bed and all the rest of us are envious because it's the most comfortable bed in the house!! Maryn has been sleeping better since she got the new bed and we always chuckle when we check on her at night... she's always sideways or in some funny position in the bed. Regardless of what it is, she looks so tiny compared to the huge bed :)

Makenna did extremely well accepting the fact that her little sister got a room makeover. She told us that it was "nice that Maryn got something bigger and newer for once" since usually Makenna gets everything first. What a kind big sister. Due to the fact that she didn't show one ounce of jealousy or whining, we spent some time re-arranging the furniture in her room to give her room a fresh look as well. That seemed to suffice for now :)


The new bed!


The other half of her room...

The stool she needs to climb into bed!


The first night she had the new bed she was so excited to go to bed! She put on her jammies before we even asked and raced into bed! My favorite aspect of the bed is that I can snuggle and read to all three of my girls in this bed at one time!


When did my baby get so big??
