About a week ago Samia started to consistantly climb out of her crib in rather unsafe manners such as climbing along the window sill. Piper soon followed suit. We would go in and find both girls in one crib with all the blankets they could find, or find that they had swapped cribs. So we decided to make the switch to big girl beds. I was weary of how the transition would go. I made a point of asking the girls if they wanted to sleep in a big bed and they said they did. But two year olds pretty much repeat anything they hear so you never know if they really mean it. Then I had them help me take the cribs apart. I set up the twin beds and let them each pick their bed. Then I let them read a few books in bed and then lights out. I didn’t hear a single fuss out of them all night and they were in their beds when I went down in the morning. So I considered that a huge sucess. They are taking their first nap in them right now and also went right to sleep. They are such good girls.
