Here I am playing on the computer, not really accomplishing much, but not wanting to go to bed, in my own room either. Here is why...
Tonight Hallie fell asleep while I was working on a few things and I was holding her, so I just put her in her crib right here by me. Partly because it was convenient and partly because she was closer if she woke up and she wouldn't wake Eric up if she did wake up. Now, this may sound very normal to most everyone, but Hallie has been sleeping in our room ever since she has come home from the hospital, and now she is so asleep that I don't want to move her. I haven't wanted to move her into her own room but have known we need to, even though she has been sleeping through the night since she was 5 or 6 weeks old, because that means she is growing up, and it has just come too fast for my liking. I've come up with every excuse to keep her in her cradle sleeping next to me, and I know we're going to have to do it sometime, I just don't want to. So now I have this inner debate of what to do, and I know that this is all just silly, and me being overprotective, but I still just don't know what to think. I'm sure I'll just let her sleep where she is, but I may end up right here on the floor next to her. :) Okay, maybe not, but I may seriously consider it, or maybe I will, I don't know. I don't like this at all! Wish me luck!

Ah the joys of motherhood... Now I know what my mom meant when I told her she needed to let go and she said just you wait for your turn. It's really hard to see them grow up so fast but it's exciting to see how they turn into these amazing little people. I think it's harder for the moms...
We ran into the same dilemma with Sarah. I will say it is nice finally having your own room back. That's what it came down to for me...I could sleep better when I wasn't constantly waking up at night to "check on her" even though she was right next to me. And now she loves her room and her own big bed, well crib :)
