4. Get Madison back into her bed.

Well, it only took 7 night lights and a "Build-a-Bear" but we successfully got Madison back into her bed. Last night, Andy tucked her in while she was watching Shirley Temple (one of her favorites). I layed down for a couple of minutes when I heard the pitter patter of 4 year old feet down the hallway. I thought, here we go. She came in and said, "Mommy, I am tired". So I told her to turn her TV off and I would come in and tuck her in. She did as I asked and there were no problems. She came back into my room at 7:30 am. I told her to climb up in bed with me. She told me she wasn't tired but ended up sleeping until about 10:00.

Andy and I had her small TV on her changing table and her armoir in the other part of her room (her room is the room that I had as a child . . . it is two bedrooms with an opening between). We moved the changing table out and the armoir in. We took out her small TV and brought up her TV that Santa brought her last year (it had been hooked up in the play room). I pray that tonight goes as smoothly as last night!

She is such a big girl!

If we have another baby, it's room will the the attached second bedroom (to Madison's). We will just put in french doors or something. Madison thought that was a good idea. She said, "That way, when the baby wakes up, I can go take care of it and I will let you sleep". I asked her how she was going to feed the baby and she responded with "A spoon". Well DUH! I explained that Mommy would need to feed it with "Mommy Milk" but there would of course be times when she could help.

I just hope that we will be able to have another baby. We tried 2 summers ago with no success. Maybe we will give it another try this coming summer. Andy and I just want to be in a good place financally. We have some friends that are having babies and are just not in a good place. Andy and I know what needs to happen before we start thinking baby. I just pray for the strength to accomplish what needs to happen so we can try to have another child.

Either way, I am blessed with Madison. She is the light of my life. I pray that if it is the lord's will, we will bel blessed with a second child. I am handing it over the Him. That is a hard thing to do, I am a total control freak!

This turned into a crazy blog. Sorry!

Yeah! Madison slept in her own bed!
