Sleepy baby

It doesn't seem all that long ago that I was writing about how Zoe was no longer my baby and started to sleep in her toddler bed. That was only about 6 months ago.

Well, this morning I was putting Sophie down for an early nap and she crawled up into Zoe's bed. Without really thinking things through, I decided to let her try to sleep in Zoe's bed instead of putting her in her crib. To my amazement she never tried to get out of the bed and within 5 minutes she was a sleeping baby. I guess this may mean she isn't my baby anymore either. Its funny how some things my children do all of a sudden help me realize how big they are getting.

I don't think we are ready to make this a habit yet, at least not until we come back from our trip to Tennessee. We will also have to move Zoe into a bigger bed so Sophie can have the toddler bed. My girls are growing so much. Love them!

Sharing a room

In preparation for our trip in February to visit John's mom and grandfather, we moved Sophie and her crib into Zoe's room so they could get used to sleeping in the same room. Since John's mom's house doesn't have much space, it will be easier if they are able to sleep together in the same room. Little did I know moving them into the same room would have been one of the best things we could have done. They love being together. Their naps are a little shorter now but they sleep great at night. In the mornings we can hear them laughing and playing together when they wake up.

Sophie loves climbing in Zoe's bed and lying down with her. In the morning when we get her out of her crib she almost always goes over to Zoe's bed and climbs in. Sometimes I give Zoe a choice now of sleeping in her room with Sophie or in my bed for her nap. Most times she picks to sleep in her room with Sophie.
