>Upon returning from vacation (and catching Missy Lou scale the pack-n-play time and time again) we bit the bullet and dropped the crib in lieu of a big girl bed. I’d like to say it’s going well…and I’ll admit almost a week later, it’s going better, but man it’s like having a newborn in the house again. I simply keep reminding myself that yes, yes, yes I want an independent, strong-willed child. I really, really do… (convinced yet??).
