Big Girl Bed

The past two days/nights Neva has been sleeping in her big girl bed.  It was a big transition for mommy!...uh hem,  I mean Neva.  The first nap there was some crying and not wanting to stay in bed, but it was quickly resolved.  That night was a bigger challenge with many tears shed.  I was not the one shedding tears, but was getting close to it.  Neva did not want to stay in bed and was just throwing a fit.  Daddy finally was able to get her to stay in bed and sleep.  When I checked on her later she was hiccuping in her sleep.  :(  I felt awful, but knew she needed to transition to a big girl bed before this next baby comes.  The next night was MUCH better!  And today for naptime, she went right into her room, crawled up onto the bed, went right to sleep just like normal.  Phew!  That makes mommy happy.  :)

Neva has also been doing very well with potty training.  There are still the occasional accidents, but she is starting to tell me BEFORE she goes.  Yay!  I never thought about potty training as such a big deal until I am the parent.  It's really quite exciting when we have success in making it to the potty!  Notice I said "we."  It takes a team effort.  Neva will get caught up in whatever she is doing and forget to tell me unless I ask her every so often if she needs to go potty.  It's so cute to see her nod her head and say, "yesh."
