We found this at the fifty mile yard sale today. We put it together here - but we'll move it to where Esme's crib is later tonight. Thank you to Grandma and Grandpa for chipping in for a brand new mattress to fit inside it, and a set of green sheets Esme picked out (not in the pictures yet - going to put them on before she goes to sleep).
Mark doesn't understand why I call it a guilty pleasure that the first thing I thought about after getting it was making Esme a special quilt to fit it. Haha! Grandma understood, though!
She also ate the entire peach blended up with some applesauce tonight. There was enough for me to have some, too. It was very good!
There will be a LOT of bouncing in it.. no matter how much we tell her not to. She has also been drinking orange kool-aid today and has a very orange tongue!
LATER: She has a green sheet with a mattress protector underneath it. AND - the pillows I made a while back with the striped yellow/red/blue cloth - one of those fits perfectly in the bed (WOW). I put an old pillowcase over it and it is now her pillow. The dreamweaver blanket Leilani at work gave us (Blanket bug) is on her bed and we retied her music pull toys to the 'rear view' mirror place in the car.
As Mark was grabbing tools to adjust a baby gate some Esme asks 'Are you going to fix it?' plain as day :) When we were assembling the car earlier I handed Mark one of the side pieces and before I could turn around and get the second Esme had it in hands and was running to the other side to help Daddy put the piece in the right place. :) she's really excited!
One last picture of it all put together in her room:

This is awesome! I bet she was over the moon with her new bed! (I know I would have been:)
yes, she is 'over the moon' about her bed :) She slept in it all night and didn't even get out and run around (shocked)
This is just precious.
