life of charmings

August 21, 2014 in at home· maddalena· mommyhood

the big girl room!

once upon a time, we had a tiiiny, little baby. and before that baby was born, we got her sweet nursery all perfectly put together, nest feathered and ready to be cuddly and quiet in… and then, you know, the craziest thing happened! in a flash, she went from baby to big girl with a big girl bed, and a big girl room, and more big girl toys than we ever imagined would fit inside! i mean, just how exactly does that happen so fast?!

[oh, maddalena, the amount that i love you!]

of course, a few things have stayed the same in maddalena’s little bedroom, but as we’ve changed so much about it this summer, it’s made me giggle [and sigh, and have an abundance of feelings, really!] to think that we get a little nursery just right, just so and then the tinies, they go all a-growing on us! but i really love it all. it’s ridiculously fun, this toddler stuff, and i still love her cozy, feminine room so so much. what’s also funny is that i actually got her pink quilt bedding to use in my dorm for my first two years in college, knowing that i’d definitely want to use it in a little girl’s room one day down the road… and now i’m finally getting to!

but! most importantly… maddalena absolutely adores her big girl room, and that makes it really fun for all of us… which is especially good for me, since madd and i have been going sleepover style in there together almost every night since we brought over the big girl bed! minus nights we’ve skipped back on into the big bed. 😉 baby steps, baby steps! we all loved sleeping together in the big bed so much, but honestly, i think she is much cozier in her bed now that she’s bigger! but let’s just say we don’t transition quickly in this house, so this is us getting the ball rolling, haha. we probably all need to join a cuddleholics anonymous group!

 anyway, yay big girl room! now, just don’t grow up on us too fast, maddalena rose!

    seriously?! how is she getting this big, this fast! i was just thinking the other day how sad i am when jake's nursery has to transition, i just love it so much! but i suppose that his excitement will make his new room (in the next few months perhaps…) a bit easier!

    It looks awesome! The perfect little space for her! To think about the months planning her nursery and how quickly it's passed over. I have issues letting go. Haha. But when they start playing independently in there and even shut the door like a teen I am just beside myself.
