Happy Valentines Bed!

Happy Valentines Day!

We had a nice day today. Dad got up with me, and we made pancakes for Momma, and then after breakfast we lazed around, and got a few things done. Then I got to take my nap at my friends' Ezra and Tori's house (Thank you!!!) while Momma and Dad went on a date!

When we got home, Momma and Dad had a special surprise for me:

After many months of letting me sleep on a mattress on the floor of my room, my Momma and Dad finally got around to setting up my big-boy captain's bed! They got it several months ago on Craigslist, and had stored it in the garage, in the hopes of refinishing it. Now they decided just to set it up, since by the time they get around to refinishing it, we'll probably need a bunkbed anyway (not saying anything here, so don't read into it)!

It's nothing fancy, but I absolutely LOVE it! I practised climbing in and out of it, and then sat and read books for about an hour (!!!) all by myself.

One huge advantage of having a big boy bed this tall is that Lincoln can't come and steal my stuffed animals! In my own words, "In my NEW bed, EVERYTHING is SAFE!" I independently moved my toy animals into one of the drawers under the bed - for added dinosaur-guardianship?
