Our First Night

Mel brought the girls back in Monday around dinner, and spent our first night in the new house as a family! Trey was there in the afternoon and evening, feverishly helping Steve finish the girls' beds before bedtime!

In the midst of all the crazy, we decided that the move to the new house would also be Evelyn's move to a big girl bed!

We have a space that's going to be a nursery that we could have put her in, but we decided it would be better to just rip the band-aid and start from the beginning.

She has done great so far! I'm not exactly sure if she has figured out yet that she can actually get out of the bed, but that works in our favor, so I'm not complaining.


Things That Happened Our First Night:

1. Evelyn fell our of her bed. (Guess we should have taken the time to install the guardrails. Oops.)

2. Bella was up three different times, complaining that her new blanket didn't fit right. (Seriously, that first night felt a little bit like we had a newborn again. We felt like we were up every hour.)

3. An alarm clock (that was packed in a box somewhere in the Master bedroom) went off at 2:00 AM. That was good times. 

4. A picture that had been in the playroom fell off the wall, knocked over a table, and sent Steve and I grabbing for weapons!

So it was an eventful first night! We were dragging like zombies a little bit the next day, but luckily, I had the excitement of unpacking to motivate me!
