Well little miss Alexandra has been sleeping every night in her Elmo bed. She hasnt been getting up at all, even in the morning when she will cry until I come to het her. However nap time was another story. Day one I eventually rocked her to sleep and set her in her bed because she was playing in her room for a long time. Day 2 I kept putting her back in her bed and finally just put her mattress back in the crib. Day 3 I tried everything I could think of. Taking away toys, not saying anything just putting her back in the bed, leaving the door open so I could see if she got up (she just got up and closed it). Finally I put her in her crib again. Well apparently she didnt like that. Today I explained to her that if she got out of her bed, I would put her in the crib. "No! Elmo Bed!" Ok, but you have to stay in your bed or I will put you in the crib. I checked on her after 14, 30 and 45 minutes. She was playing in bed the first time. Second time she just looked at me. Last time she was finally sleeping which is when I took this picture. Cozy, huh? I am so proud of her for staying in her bed. Maybe I did check on her more than three times now that I think of it... but it doesnt matter. She did it! And in time to take a good nap:)
