Well, we started Lola’s transition to a ‘big bed’ (aka, twin bed) a week ago today. I honestly thought it would go much smoother than it has. She really did love her crib, and I wouldn’t be in any hurry to move her out of it if I weren’t pregnant. It seems to slowly be getting better and now I’m glad we started when we did because I want her to be completely settled in her new room by the time the new baby arrives. Naps seem to be more challenging than nights. I feel like we have a new infant already with all the interrupted sleep we are getting!
Lola has also permanently moved into the 2-3 year old room at her school. It was a bit sad for us at first because we really liked the teachers in her infant and toddler rooms. She adjusted right away though, like literally the first day she ‘visited’ Room 10 she LOVED it. Some kids take several weeks, even a month to transition, but Lola seemed ready the first day she visited. So her transition took only a week. It kind of happened before we were ready, but I guess it’s better if she is ready right!? When I picked her up on Monday, she looked so happy. Not happy to see me specifically, but just happy being in the room with the other kids and interacting with them. The nice thing about her school is that around 1/3 of the kiddos in Room 10 were also with her in Room 6, so she knows several of them (and was really good friends with one of them who just moved a month ago). One of her good friends is still in Room 6 and won’t be 2 until May, so she has to wait a few months to see her again which makes me sad…
