It's the end of the world as we know it...

and I don't feel fine.

The girls are 2 years, 5 months and 13 days old (or 897 days old). Every one of these nights they have slept in a highly confined space - and I think they enjoy it. But, we are closing in on a new era - one that includes big girl beds.

We have been talking about big girl beds for a long time - and the rules that go along with big girl beds - no jumping, no touching the blinds and don't get out until mom comes in the room.

Yesterday we went to buy blankies. Ev choose a bright pink super soft and cozy blanket. Erin went with a cozy white blankie with big bright colored polka dots! Seriously - if I had to pick out their blankets I would have picked these exact 2 blankets. But, they 100% made the choice. They love them!

Today Dave picked up the beds and we rearranged the room. Right now they are "sleeping" in their big girl beds - that's ri9ght, day 898. Maybe we should have held off until they are 900 days - or maybe 9000 days (that would make them over 25) ... that sounds better to me.

These photos and video are from their last night in cribs ;-(
