Our Sweet Little Avery

Recently Ali and I decided that we would lower Avery's crib and put up the day bed rail to see if we could start training her in a big girl bed. (Shes a little young but we have heard other people have success when starting earlier) Anyway she has done really well. THe first 3 night's she has never gotten out of it, she does however tend to get up a little bit earlier. When she wakes up she is really happy because she can just hop out of bed and leaver her room. She usually comes out with an excited smile and finds her mom. Most of the time Ali will still be in bed around 8:30 and Avery will come straight to her with a cheerful hello. On the rare occasion that she has gotten up in the middle of the night we have always heard her and she wakes us up. Well this morning when i woke up for work I was getting out of bed and my foot stepped on a large teddy bear that was not in my room the night before, than as I walked around the bed I see another teddy large teddy bear had been dragged into the room, realizing that oh Avery must be up playing with her toys with out us noticing. I began to look around the house to see where she was at...I look in her room no Avery, I check down the hall and living room still no Avery. Now I began to think ok where did she go? I look again in my bedroom to find our little girl had actually gone on the other side of the bed (Ali's side) and plopped herself down on a large pillow next to the laundry and fallen asleep. It was so cute. She probably came in all excited dragging her bears into our room and when no one else was awake decided to lay back down herself. I feel a little bad that neither of us woke up and hopefully she wasn't too sad.
