Big Girl Bed!

Wow, another week and a half have past again with no post! I knew I was not going to do very well at this. I still enjoy reading everyone else's posts though :) I'm glad you all do better at posting than I do!

We took the baby bed out of Maddie's room this week. Talk about sad! My baby is in a big girl bed. I just can't believe it. It doesn't seem possible. We put it off as long as we could, she is 2 1/2. She stilled loved her bed so we kept her in it this long. I think it was time though. We have not really had a chance to see how well she is going to do because she has had croup since the first night in the big bed. I think she will do fine in it...a harder transition for me, I think.

I am attaching a few pictures of her room with the baby bed. I loved her room. Oh well, I guess it is time to move forward.

This daybed is what she is sleeping on now. Not sure what we are going to do about decorating. I can't really leave this cream chenille quilt on the bed for her. It would not be cream long, I am sure. I will have to let you know where we go from here :)

I will post more later...how much later? You never know!

Happy Birthday Mark!

Yesterday was Mark's birthday! Happy Birthday, honey! He is young...2 weeks younger than I am! We celebrated Saturday night with a meal together and cake! We made his favorite chocolate cake with homemade icing poured over the top. It was thin this time so I poked holes all in the cake so it would saturate down in it. It was absolutely delicious! We put 3 candles of one color and 2 candles of another on it for the 32 years it represented. We had such a good time just enjoying being together. The girls enjoyed celebrating "daddy" and making it special for him.

We love you daddy. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful home.
