Not to be outdone by all of the improvements in the rest of the house, Amelia scored a new bed last week. The bed, designed and built by my dad, has been a long time coming and Amelia could not be happier with the way it turned out!
The space underneath the bed (where Amelia likes to hang out) will hopefully be fitted with some sort of storage bucket or tub to keep toys, books, etc.
We love the bed, BUT its placement gives her full access to the shelves in her room that she USED to not be able to reach. Immediately, her Pez Dispenser collection went from a shelf she couldn't reach to the built-in shelf on her bed. She likes to take books into her bed and match the characters from the book with various dispensers she owns. Then, she re-inacts the story using the dispensers. As you can see, she likes to have them all lined up. On Christmas Eve, she placed them in groups, each in the shape of a circle. She said they were making "wreaths" to "decorate for Christmas".
It certainly seems like she sleeps better in this bed than she did when her mattress was just on a frame (which is really the best part about this gift!). Thanks for that Papa John!
