She's Growing Up

E is having a Birthday soon and I'm shopping for a new comforter and sheets for a twin size bed. She will be upgrading from her toddler 3 in 1 crib to just the back side panel as the headboard. It's very exciting for her and us but it hasn't been easy deciding what bed to buy for her. I was actually trying to sell her crib but when the matching rocking chair went out the door to a lucky Craigslister she was really upset and yelled at us to not sell her crib. 

Anyway, I'm searching for a comforter and sheets and I'm struggling with deciding between themed characters and something more generic. She likes dinosaurs and Sofia the First so which do I choose. And what about when she grows out of those. A generic print will last longer. I know these aren't severely important issues to us but they are to a person at her age.

We are also planning to set her up with a ballet and jazz class. We'll wrap the leotard and slippers as the gift and she'll love it! The other kids have had extra curricular activities and now that she has a little more control over her arms and legs we think it is time to dedicate an hour a week for E. 

It's hard to let them grow up. Especially the last born. She has her own social life with weekend Birthdays to attend and the occasional play date. She always wants to spend the night at Grammy's. She orders her own food at restaurants. She dresses herself and brushes her teach. She's been working on getting the shower started. She's so big and so precious. Everyday she gets older and more wonderful.
