I just thought I'd share what I think is cute/funny sleeping arrangements for my little princess. This has been the progression:
We didn't want her to sleep in our bed (for obvious reasons), but when she was brand new, boy did she have a set of lungs on her!! Howl, howl, howl....so, she slept with us until she got a little bit bigger.
Then, I put her soft fluffy blanket in a bed right next to my bed, and we didn't let her whine her way out of it. For awhile, she chose to sleep on my boyfriends discarded close next to his side of the bed, but then decided her bed was pretty cozy after all and spent weeks and weeks sleeping in it. (Of course, she had to scratch around and get her blanket juuuuussst right first
) She doesn't even whine anymore...when I get in bed and turn out the lights, she goes right to bed!!
NOW, however, she has figured out that she can JUMP into my waist-high or so hamper and sleep on top of the clothes in there!! Every night for the past several weeks after the light goes out, I can hear her jump into the hamper (it takes a couple tries), scratch around to get her "bed" just right, and then nada all night. When the clothes get low (after laundry day), I stuff a couple of pillows in so she won't get stuck! She used to be up and down during the night to potty (leaving evidence on her pad by the door), but now she stays there all night. I keep her in my bedroom during the day when I'm gone too, and when she's not waiting for me at the door when I open it, she's looking up at me sleepily from my hamper!! (She does occasionally sleep in her bed still, but more often than not she is in the hamper.) Silly girl! I'm thinking of making her stairs so it will be easier to get in and out of....although, I put pillows in front so she could get on those and then jump in, but she chooses to jump up the long way. Oh well...we'll see about those stairs, I guess.
Sooo, does your furbaby sleep anywhere interesting? I'm curious to know if anyone else's baby sleeps in a hamper, or anywhere else cute/funny!!
