day 1
1st night we had her try sleeping in her toddler bed cold turkey. that didn't work. it was foreign to her. she never slept on a toddler bed. she kept getting out. so we let her try and go on her sister's bed. that didn't work. she'd turn lights on and off, get up to play. we would hear laughing and talking. that lasted 45 min. til we finally put her back in her crib in her own room and she knocked out shortly after.
day 2
attempted to have her sleep on her own toddler bed. she wanted to sleep with her sister in her bed. that didn't work. after some time she would get up, touch the computer or turn on the lights. we'd hear laughing and talking. or taylor would complain. that also lasted about 45 min til we put her back in her crib and she fell fast asleep.
day 3
tonight!
we decided to humor her tonight. we didn't think she would do it. so we were just gonna put her right in her crib but peyton insisted on sleeping with her "ate" taylor. so we told her ok, 1 last chance, you get up and that's it. her mattress wasn't even on her toddler bed this time. it was already in her crib. she was pretty tired laying there next to her sister. then taylor yells "she got up." so we went up but peyton was still laying there. so off to her crib she was supposed to go. she went in her crib but cried. she really wanted to sleep with her sister. so i caved. i told jino let's give her another chance but this time let her sleep in taylor's room but on her own bed. we tucked her in. told her she got 1 chance to do that. by now she was super tired. we went downstairs. she cried. i went up and she was outta her bed. but i decided to still tuck her in and i sat there next to the bed til she fell asleep!!! she DID IT!
praying it lasts...and that she can stay there the whole night.
our 2 little girls.
and yes taylor IS falling asleep watching a dvd. hah! whatever works.
hmmm...time for some new, matching toddler bed sheets! =)
