Kinsey's BIG Girl Bed!

The last few weeks I've been slowly turning our guest bedroom into Kinsey's BIG girl room! I found a really cute pink and brown quilt from Target and knew it would look great with the chocolate brown walls that I didn't want to repaint! I wanted Kinsey to feel comfortable in her "new" room so she could start taking naps and get used to sleeping in a big bed before moving her in there at night (which needs to happen before baby #2 comes!). After putting the quilt on the bed, some pink curtains up, and moving some of her books to the nightstand she has taken full ownership of her new room! She loves going in there, crawling up on the bed and just hanging out! Usually if I can't find her that's where she's at! After getting a bed rail last week, I thought we'd try to start taking naps on the big bed today...I really expected her to get up or for me to have to lie down with her until she fell asleep but she proved me wrong! She laid down and talked to herself for just a few minutes but when I went to check on her a little later she was fast asleep and has been now for 2 hours! Woo, hoo!


Such a little girl in such a big bed!

There's still several more things I want to do before Kinsey's big girl room will be finished but we've still got plenty of time and I know how I want it to look it's just a matter of getting things done! Ryan's honey-do list is growing by the minute! : )
In baby news: I'm officially 13 weeks! YAY! Last Tuesday I went for my 12 week checkup that lasted all of 5 minutes. My dr. found the heartbeat, asked if I had any questions-which I didn't, and said, "okay you're good to go. See you in 4 weeks!" Gotta love paying probably over $100 for a 5 minute checkup! Oh well, I'm just so thankful that things are going well this pregnancy because that is truly priceless! We are anxious to find out the sex of the baby, of course, but that will be another 7 weeks at our 20 week checkup. I really think it's a girl and that's what the Chinese calendar is saying and the heart rate is high like Kinsey's was but Ryan strongly thinks it's a boy and he was right with Kinsey (I thought Kinsey was a boy) so I guess we'll see! We would both love to have a little boy before our family is complete but I would love for Kinsey to have a sister too so I will be absolutely thrilled either way and really in the end I know it doesn't matter, all we really want is a healthy baby!
Happy Monday! Hope you all have a great week!

I love the pink and brown. Glad the transition is going smoothly...maybe it will keep going that way. Can't wait to see you in a week or so. Terri will be here too!

Love Kinsey's new room. Been debating on when to transition my little monkey to a big girl bed. So glad it went well for you!
