Speck’s first night in her Toddler Bed.
Mar 31st
So it took a lot out of me to make the decision to transition Speck from her crib to her toddler bed. Well so far my worries have been unfounded. Yesterday Daddy removed the front rail of her crib and well the transition was set to start. We took our bath and then laid in bed while we read a story and talked about how she is a big girl now and that it’s time to sleep like a big girl. I put her to bed at 8:30pm and when I went to check on her around 10:30 she was curled up in the recliner/rocker in her room. I left everything as it was and came downstairs. Later a friend reminded me that the whole point of the transition was to make sure she slept in bed. So I went back upstairs at 11:00 pm and moved her from the chair to her bed. No crying, no drama, no noise. She slept in quite late (9:30am). I had to actually wake her and when I walked into her room, she was still in her bed. I took a few pictures because I assumed no one would believe me.
Speck is polite
Mar 29th
We realize that Speck is pretty much on par with where she needs to be developmentally. But I am still shocked at how she’s come from being that blob in her glider. heh. Time flies when you are having fun 
So here’s a little bit of a morning conversation I had with Speck. Isn’t she just adorable. She’s finally learned her Please and Thank You AND How to say YES!!! She started off saying yah, which was completely unacceptable so after about 2 weeks of consistently correcting her, she’s finally got it. See for yourself
Word Update
Mar 28th
She uses so many words and phrases right now it’s hard to keep up. Candy sounds like NakkiKnock sounds like Knocky Door sounds like DoorMama no sounds like Mama NO. She’s become more assertive with the things nowadays. Telling us what she wants and doesn’t want. She’s definitely not a pushover.
Speck has a unique way of eating crackers
Mar 1st
So she licks all the cheese on the inside and then gives the outer crackers to the dogs. Told you this kid was weird….
Sleeping beauty

Sleeping Beauty’s got a big old butt.
I caught Speck in sweet slumber this morning. She was very cold, coz she woke up with blue lips but this pose was just so adorable. Yes, I did cover her up once the picture was taken.
