Princess Jane

We have had this toddler bed in Jane's room since Kate graduated to a bunk bed. Instead of wanting to sleep in it, Jane has used it to store her stuff on. Nothing could coerce her to move from crib to big girl bed. Can't say we pushed her too hard, we liked the idea of having control of when she could or couldn't get out of bed!
The youth at church are having a garage sale the first weekend of June and we decided no time like the present to get our girl to "grow up" and sleep in a big girl bed. After some brainstorming, Andy and I decided the only way to sell this new sleeping arrangement was to do an extreme room makeover minus the extreme. We took down the crib, moved the toddler bed to its old spot, hung a princess tent over the bed, put her pop up Dora tent in the other corner to create her very own clubhouse, and........tah dah!
She walked into her room, shouted "oh my gosh, this is AWESOME!" and started jumping on the bed saying "I'm a princess!" over and over.
She has only fallen out one time and didn't even bother to wake us up. She just slept on the floor till we found her the next morning.
