Butler Family News: Huge Transition!

Maggie made the move on Friday night from her crib to a big girl bed AND to sharing a room with big sister! This was/is huge! Our first concern was that Maggie would climb out of her bed repeatedly and our second concern is that the girls would talk/giggle/play so much together that not a lot of sleeping would occur. Well...the second concern won! Maggie has been awesome about staying in her big girl bed but the keeping each other awake is proving to be the problem.

The first night they were awake for an hour before falling asleep and then each of the 2 nights since have progressively gotten better. But nap time is a different story! I put them down at 1:06 on Saturday and they finally fell asleep at 3:00, after numerous visits by mommy and daddy and a few visits with the no-no stick. And then yesterday, Mags finally fell asleep and Kate decided to have a chat with herself thus waking Maggie up. We are definitely a work in progress!:)

I will have to say that it is super cute and sweet to read them both a book and tuck them in in the same room. They are excited about sharing a room and Maggie keeps saying "My room and Kate's room?" And she's already calling the nursery "baby brother's room" so it seems that she's happy to have made the move.

We're just praying that the newness wears off sooner rather than later and we can all enjoy nap time again!
