Rhian’s Milestone: Sleeping on her own BED

I want to document all the milestones of our children here in the blog para pag dating ng panahon pag malaki na sila mababasa at makikita nila yung mga achievements nila nung bata pa sila.  

Rhian is co-sleeping with us until I gave birth to Rhaine. In fact, nasa gitna namin sya ni Ian matulog so ganito ang situation namin for almost 1 year and 11 months. My husband and I decided that this is the right time for Rhian to sleep on her own bed, well mag two narin naman sya and I think we need to co-sleep her baby sister naman db. My in-laws from US gave this canopy bed to Rhian as their Christmas gift to her; we just bought the Uratex Mattress at the Baby Company Store while the comforter set was given by her generous ninong. Thank  you Ninong Marc.

Right after Christmas, my husband decided to assemble the bed and it took him 1 hour to build it. Pano ba naman hindi tatagal eh may makulit na bata na nakikisali. Hihi.

Our next challenge is how to train Rhian to sleep on her own bed. The first thing we did was to show her how beautiful the bed is. As in dinala namin sa pabola-bola, to the extent na pati si Baby Bunso e pinahiga namin sa kama para lang humiga rin si ChingChing,and you know what successful naman kami! Wohooo.. She slept on her own bed on that day.

Note: Di na namin nilagay yung nasa taas na parang cover, knowing Rhian, paglalaruan lang nya yun. hehe

Sometimes in the middle of the night, bumababa sya sa bed nya and lilipat sa tabi ko, mag susumiksik sa amin ni Rhaine so what I always did is hindi tabihan rin sya meaning nasa gitna nila ako (Rhian and Rhaine) and no choice si husband kung hindi matulog sa lapag. Hehe.

First day on her own bed. :)

Although namimiss ko syang katabi lalo na mga sipa at tadyak nya, I know we did the right decision especially now na 2 na sila and soon when we moved to our own house mas sanay na ko na hindi ko na sila katabi matulog lalo na they will have separate room na with us. Pero believe me, I will make sure that at least once a week tatabi ako sa kanila sa pag tulog. Now, we’re thinking of buying another toddler bed when Rhaine turns 2 narin or we should buy the double deck na para pag lumipat na kami yun rin ang gagamitin nila? What do you think guys?

Enjoying her bed on 2nd night 

Now, we are in the process naman ng potty training and homeschooling for Rhian. I’m so excited to share with you about our homeschooling and how Rhian reacts on our lessons everyday.
