The Big Girl Ni-Night and Her Lonely Maiden Voyage

Ah, the Big Girl Ni-Night. Isn't she a beaut? Here I am helping Daddy put it together. As you can see, I chose a captain's bed. The beauty is the double duty it serves: not only can I sleep in it, but it has oodles of storage underneath.


Here I am all cozied in with all my safety features: blankets surrounding the perimeter, bed rail, and pillows covering the hardwood floor along the bottom. Oh and don't forget the three pacifiers, sippy cup of water, pillow and Birdman the bear.



And here she is...cold, empty and lonely. Me? I was in my crib sleeping soundly.


Not to fear, that was just Try #1 and Mom and Dad chalked up the cataclysmic failure to the fact that bedtime is around 7:30 and this bed wasn't fully functional until well after 8:00, meaning they missed the window of opportunity for me to fall asleep without a hitch.
Try #2 was fully successful, as have been all nights since. Another reason Mom and Dad are glad they got a captain's bed: it's so high off the ground that I would NEVER consider trying to get out of it. I value my life too much!
I'm off to find a ladder to climb into my bed now.
Hugs!
