Anniversary and a Big Girl Bed!

Last Saturday David and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary with a trip to Raleigh and dinner at our favorite...The Melting Pot! Dinner was delicious and we had a great time reminiscing about our wedding. We laughed about how on our wedding night the hotel we were staying in put us in the "Excersise Room". When we opened the door we saw a twin bed and a very old school excersise bike. The walls were lined in floor to ceiling mirrors. To this day I'm not sure if this was an accident or if they were playing a mean trick on the naive honeymooners! :) David got us switched to another room but that was just the beginning of a very memorable honeymoon! We still talk about how we are entitled to a do-over honeymoon to make up for our first one! :)


When we got home from dinner we decided (at 11:30 at night) it would be the perfect time to take down Ava's crib and move her big girl bed into her room. I didn't realize how sad it was going to make me! My baby is growing up too fast! When Ava got home Sunday morning she was so excited to see her big girl bed! David and I were both a little nervous about how she would do the first night but she did great!! She has been in it a few nights now and for the most part she has done really well. This morning, however, I came home from work at around 7:15 am. Usually Ava is still asleep so I was trying to be really quiet. When I walked around the couch I see Ava sleeping on the living room floor, snuggling up to her teddy bear. I go into my bedroom and David is still sleeping in the bed. He never heard her get up and go to the living room! I have no idea what made her crawl out of her bed and decide to lay down on the floor?? Oh well, it's a work in progress!
