tonight will be lily's first night in her own room and crib. the past 7 weeks she has been sleeping in a bassinet in our room.
this is my second really sad moment of being her mom. the first tears came when she outgrew her first newborn outfit. she just changes so much every day. first she started to smile at us, then she began lifting her head, outgrowing her clothes, and today she laughed at me for the first time.
its hard to explain, but i'm sad when she changes because i know that the time i have with her is so precious. the smallest bit of growth just breaks my heart because the moments i had with her before this change happened are already over.
wish us luck adapting to this new arrangement! ...and by us, i mean me :)

it won't be the last time she laughs at you--trust me! love,mom
...well...how did it go?
it went ok! she is waking up more often now, but i am also putting her down 2 hours earlier than we used to.
i'd still kill for one night of uninterrupted sleep! i know its coming one of these days :)
Mollie, this made me cry, too - happy tears- from a mom whose child is having their one year birthday on Friday - I can't believe how fast they grow - I cried through all of the growing stages too. You are a great mom. Keep up the good work! Meagan
