My parents recently got a bed for Claire and Will so that they could stay over sometimes, and Claire got to try it out for the first time a couple of weeks ago. She was SO excited. Robert and I are currently taking a parenting class at our church on Sunday evenings, so we dropped the kids off at Mom & Dad's, and they played and had their baths while we were in class. We went back over to make sure Claire was doing okay, tell her good night, and pick up Will. When we were driving away, Will starting saying "Claire? Claire? Claire!!!" in an increasingly insistent voice. We realized that he thought we had accidentally left her, and it took a few minutes, but we were able to convince him that we intended for her to say at Nana & Granddaddy's.
Mom & Dad reported that it took her a little longer than usual to fall asleep, so Mom ended up sleeping on the trundle, which made Claire happy. She slept great, and when I picked her up the next morning, she asked if she could stay there again that night. So, it was definitely a success. :) We are planning for her to have another sleepover soon.
The next morning, Will enjoyed some alone time and felt like big stuff sitting in Claire's chair, something she doesn't usually let him get away with.
