Scarlett started to sleep in her new bedroom and bed last week. With as curious and adventurous as she is she has never climbed out of her crib or even attempted to escape but I was still nervous for her to have such freedom. Would she drive me crazy by leaving her room? Would she wander around at night? Would we have to baby proof the door to prevent escaping? None of the above. She has been fantastic (very surprising if you know her) We leave the door opened a crack and she will stay right on her bed and read books/play with her bunny till she falls asleep. No escaping. In the morning she calls "mom come get me". It's cute and I love her.
I did all the decorating and painting before Alice was born. I am glad I did, it would not happen now. I made the curtain and the two magnet boards, my mom did not even help me!
My favorite part about decorating my girls' rooms is painting their murals. I love picking the picture and colors and seeing it all come together. Scarlett is in LOVE with butterflies, which she calls "flys". So her room had to be butterfly themed. Here is Scarlett's old room mural. Oh, and her green lanterns have have lights in them. I turn them on at night and she loves it. Best part, they automatically turn off after 2 hours.
She does jump on the bed but childhood would not be childhood without that.
Did I mention she loves butterflys? She has to give at least one a kiss before she leaves her room... "bye bye fly, see ya soon".
okay her bed is bigger than mine. something is wrong here
