So we have finally conquered the big girl bed!!! After a few weeks and a vacation up north in between, we have Liv sleeping all night in her bed. I have looked online and asked the advice of mother's for help to get her to bed, and stay in it all night. We made a big deal about getting her new bedding for her toddler bed, we put stars on her ceiling and a little table to keep her books on next to her. We read to her for about 15 minutes each night to help her relaz, then we put the gate up, turn the light off and she has to stay in her bed. We have said (and thankful never had to do) that if she get's out of bed then we will shut the door and this seems to work! She cries for a few minutes on nights that she is super tired, but other than that she sleep all night in her own bed! It was not an easy process by any means but well worth it in the end :) Now if we could get her little sister to sleep through the night I would be one happy Mumma!
