BROOKIE - TIME TO START SLEEPING IN YOUR OWN BED

So at 3 1/2 years old we have had it - time for this little bed hog to start sleeping in her own bed - well kind of anyway - she has a crib mattress that we pull out from under our bed. We have told her she can sleep on that or in her own bed but NOT with us ANYMORE - of course she chooses baby steps and still wants to be close to us. I still find her standing at the side of the bed a few times during the night and I have to send her back to her mattress. I feel so bad, she tells us "I wanna sleep with you guys" - hopefully it's gonna get easier (for us heehee). I know I know it's our own fault for letting her sleep with us in the beginning (next baby we won't do that - right Scott?). I actually had room to move last night and it sure was nice to be close to Scott for a change. Once she has fully adapted to her mattress we will work on moving her to her room - hopefully before she starts school.

Poor Brookie, you are so mean! hehe. JK, now I need to do this to Sam. Not that he starts in our bed, I just need to get the energy to take him back to his room once he comes our way in the middle of the night.

I feel your pain. Garrett is afraid upstairs and will not go up even in the day without someone else, which is where his bed is. But I do love playing with him in the mornings. It's so hard!
