Other than nap time Ava is in my bed...but I will on occasion, when she wakes up early and I've been on the late shift the night before, put her back in her crib with a half dozen books and a cup of cherrios so Mama can get a much needed additional hour sleep.
She is usually quite happy to sit there with her snack and read "Boo" her books...not this morning...I was barely back to bed and heard a THUD! It didn't take me 30 seconds to get into her room...she was already standing beside the crib whaling!
She has never as much as raised her foot to the crib rail before...so don't know what possessed her to climb out today. She must have rubbed her nose on the wood rails coming down as this "rug burn" type of abbrasion showed up on her nose an hour or so later.
This crib is now history!
Ava's new "Big Girl" bed!(not as far to fall)
Trying out her new bed at nap time
She always falls asleep in my arms in the rocking chair before nap...so not sure how this new bed thing is going to work out if I actually start her in the bed before she's asleep...any hints on how to keep them in the bed!...when there are no barriers to keep them there.
Reading "Boo" a book after her nap!

Ouch! Good luck with the big girl bed, mama. It looks like she is taking to it nicely....talk about relaxation :0)
Oops...bonk! Glad to hear your sweetie is ok and that she's adjusted so well to her new 'big girl' bed. Yeah Ava!!
Oww! Best of luck with her new bed. :)
Ouch. I guess that was enough to get mommy to jump out of bed (probably still half asleep right?) She looks all grown up in her big girl bed. I don't really have any advice on keeping her in her bed. Samara is in a big bed now too but shares a room with her big sister so maybe that helps her stay in bed. Hmmm . . . not sure. Good luck with that though.

Yikes! Hope the fall didn't hurt too much. She is a big girl now in her big girl bed.
Big girl! Sorry to hear that there was a bumpity bump in your house today.
Keep smilin!
She is growing up. Eli has a sticker chart and one of his stickers that he can get each day is for staying in his own bed. It has worked like a charm so far.
