Not a baby anymore.

So, many of you know that Holly has been gnawing on the bars of her crib. I am out of ideas about what to do with her, so Jason and I decided to try putting the Elmo toddler bed in there, just to see what happens. I thought she may be chewing on the bars because she's teething, but it's been weeks now. She only chews when she upset and feeling trapped in the crib. She's worn through the white paint and actually had chunks of wood in her mouth. So what's worse - eating tiny pieces of wood, or falling 8 inches onto carpet out of the bed? Hmmmm.

We've been trying to have her nap in the bed when we can pay close attention to the monitor, but so far she's still sleeping in the crib at night. Her first nap was on the July 1 and she slept for a little more than 1 hour - a typical nap for her. She's had 2 other successful naps in there since then. We put Ella in the bed in November and it worked really well. We shall see how Holly takes to it.

We have a gate in her doorway, just like we did with Ella and the room is baby-proofed. I should be getting some funny pictures out of it, just like these of Ella.
