First Step to Big Sister

This summer we are buying Miss M. a new bedroom set so that we can move her current crib and changing table, etc. to the new nursery.  Last night was the first step in this process....turning her crib into a toddler bed. 

She was SUPER EXCITED!!

 

 

A couple of weeks before I bought the bed rails at a garage sale.  A GREAT deal!  Two bed rails, in great shape, for only $10!!

 

The only problem when purchasing an item at a garage sale is that it doesn't come with directions.  But, really, how hard could putting a bed rail be? 

 

The answer is...a lot more complicated than you can imagine.  Ben and I were trying to figure out this contraption, but we had no luck.  We were both getting a little testy, but talking in that "everything's okay for the child voice".  Anyway, we didn't figure it out and finally just stuck it under the mattress.  Today I will be looking up the directions on the Internet!

 



 It took her a little longer to fall asleep because she was so excited, but once she got to sleep, she had no issues and slept in like a champ!!
