Please cross your fingers and say a little prayer. Tonight is the first night that Sophia will try to sleep in her room in her big girl bed. She has been in a toddler bed in our room since July 3rd. We tried VERY UNSUCCESSFULLY to have her sleep in her own room and bed when we got home, but she just wasn't ready.
Now, we have also had issues with Eli since we came home. He wakes up all throughout the night and gets out of bed and tries to climb into bed with whoever will take him. This has been going on for three months.
So tonight I am putting them both on the bottom bunk together...one at each end. I am hoping that they will be comforted by each other and sleep in their room all night long.
We made very special preparations for tonight. Eli got a new Transformers poster that I put on his end of the bed and Sophia got a new Tinkerbell poster for her end. We also put glow in the dark stars on the wood that supports the top matress, so that when they look up they will see them.
Oh my word...I am so nervous. I HOPE THIS WORKS!!!

Good luck. I'll be expecting an update tomorrow. Extra hugs and prayers tonight. Love ya!
I will pray! Let us know how it goes!
Fingers are crossed. I hope this goes well!
Oh, I hope it works, too. You won't know til you try, right?
best wishes....hope they both sleep tight in their own beds. and if not...don't ask me for advice cause I still have little ones in my bed every night and Ella has been home with us for 3 1/2 years. lol! Definitely doing something wrong over here. : )
Hoping all goes well tonight...great idea with the glow in the dark stars and posters! Cute pics too!
Oh I hope this works. We still have Eliana in our room a year later. I will pray it works!
Good luck! I hope everyone sleeps through the night! Keep us posted! Although my kids have separate rooms, they prefer to sleep in the same room!
Good Luck!!! I hope it works out!! Let us know how it went!!
Good Night, Sophia & Eli!!
Sending lots of prayers that Sophia and Eli can sleep in their bed tonight! They were probably very excited about the new posters and twinkling stars! I use to have those stars in my bedroom growing up and I loved them!!!
Keep us posted!
Hugs,
Jody
That's amazing!! I pray it works out. Can't wait to hear!
Praying you guys had a good night and I am so proud of her. I am hoping when we get to Mexico that we can get the girls a bunk bed and this will excite them to sleep by themselves....until then I just enjoy snuggling with them and feeling them close to me. Good girl Sophia!
Already know it went well- thank goodness for FB! :) Great news!!! So thankful for you both!!!
Blessings!

update! hope it worked, love all the preparations for them, genius!
Sounds like you have a good plan; sometimes takes a few nights... hoping it goes well! Sleep for all!

So how did sleeping in the big bed go? Jazmyn has been in her own bed since we got home, she wakes up 3-4 times a night..she usually needs to pee then she wants me to stay with her til she falls back to sleep. Makes for a long night!
I have to ask....do you keep the bedrails up all the time or do you put them down during the day? I have the same ones and it is too long for the bed! I think 'll have to add a boxspring.
