Time for a Big-Girl Bed?

We’ve been experimenting with the inflatable toddler bed I bought this summer in the hopes that Carrie would sleep in it on our Disney trip. Yesterday we tried starting her out in it for both her nap and bedtime, but both times she asked to sleep in her crib not long after.

Today at nap time Carrie insisted on sleeping in her Winnie-the-Pooh bed. I told her the rule: if she gets out of bed she has to sleep in her crib. She didn’t budge. Two hours later I heard her talking and went up to check on her, and she was still tucked in her bed, talking to her stuffed animals.

She initially wanted to sleep in it again for bedtime, but then asked for her crib. We’ll see how the rest of the week goes – it would certainly be easier to bring the inflatable bed with us on our trip than the pack & play (which she’s technically too tall for…)
