Dancing on the Edge

From this.......

To this.....




Of course, she isn't sleeping there - but then, she never slept in her crib either. :) I found this toddler bed at a garage sale and, after talking it over with D, decided to buy it and put it up in her room. After all, the crib was mainly used for storage and at least now she has a bed she can crawl up on and hang out on. Yesterday, she went into her brother's room, picked a book from his bookshelf, toddled back into her room, climbed on her bed, leaned back against the wall and "read". It was so darn cute!!

It's the end of the chapter for the crib. It's actually pretty sad as its been up constantly since November of 2001. We put it up while I was pregnant with K and it hasn't been down again until this weekend (it turned into a toddler bed (but was as high off the ground as a regular crib) and K was still using it until baby K was about three months old. Then K moved into a big boy bed.

I was going to see about giving it to a friend but in the end, I'm way too emotionally attached to it and we decided to put in into the attic for now.

No more babies for us. *sigh* That does make me sad even though I know our family is complete with two children. They grow up too darn quickly!
