Once Upon a Mattress

Last night Aidan graduated out of her crib and into her big girl bed. Right now we just have a mattress on the floor while she gets used to being able to roll out of bed.

Several people asked me if I was sad that she was out of her crib. It honestly didn't occur to me to be sad because she was sooooo happy and excited about her new bed and her big girl bedding. I like to feel emotions about 6 months after it's appropriate, so if you see me weeping in the fall it will probably be about her not being in a crib anymore.

Aidan has a double ear infection (AGAIN) so she has not been a happy camper, but once we put that mattress on the floor you would have never known she was sick. She was actually shrieking with glee.




In Baby #2 news, I started my 3rd trimester today. Good thing this baby will have somewhere to sleep now.

My Funny Valentine

Ben surprised Aidan and I with a Valentine's tea at Inspirations Tea Room. My first thought was, yay I get to eat scones, my second thought was Aidan is going to break everything that isn't nailed down in that place. But she actually did really well! The good thing about her rampant obsession with princesses is that if you just add the word princess on to anything she will love it. So princess tea party, she's totally there.

Hello dainty porcelain cup. Don't make any sudden movements and maybe you will live through the next 30 minutes.

Aidan's princess tea party tray. I think she's going to expect pink sprinkles on her pbj's from now on
Ben and I's tray. Hello lover.

Guys is this cupcake moving or is it just me?

You're a pretty cupcake, You're pretty. Zzzzzzz.

Aidan's been asleep for about 3 hours now. The hangover is not going to be pretty.
