Another 2 Firsts!!

Hudson lost his first tooth (finally!) and Saylor got a big girl bed (not so finally :( ) Hudson doesn't like to wiggle his loose teeth so even though they are loose he won't help work them out so the big tooth started to grow behind. I gave him a week and said if it's not out we have to go get it pulled and he (like his mother) waited until the last night and worked it until it came out!

He got to use his tooth pillow for the tooth fairy!

These three didn't get as excited as we did!

That sweet fairy left him $10 for his 1st tooth bonus and a bedazzled bill!

Saylor since being sick has slept with us and did not think she needed to go back to her crib :/ So we started talking about how good she sleeps in a real bed and sometimes she will sleep till 9:30, the boys have no idea what sleeping in is so we wanted to applaud this. We talked about a bunch of different scenarios....move our queen guest bed in her room, buy her a twin bed, buy her a full bed, or move her to the guest bedroom. The Rusty Chandelier was opening the same week so on a whim I dragged the big boys and left Saylor with Khaki and we went to look and found this gem tucked away. An antique, full size wrought iron bed it was right on the money so we purchased!

It fits perfectly in her room and she is so proud of it. I know the picture above is not centered but that is where a nail hole was...will complete the rest of the room soon!

First night in her bed and she slept all night until 8:30am! The only struggle we have had is she wakes up and calls for me to come lay with her...how do I get out of this habit!?

We did this same thing with two little boys 4 years ago! The differences are Saylor was not crawling out of her bed and she was 25 months old and the boys were doing acrobats out of their cribs and were only 22 months old.
