More evidence that Diana's getting to be a big girl

Just as I was getting ready to put Diana down for her afternoon nap, she slipped away and into her big sister's room. She climbed up into Amelia's bed and asked me to draw the blinds and turn off the lights (which were already off). Then she put her head on the pillow and said, "Sleep," while making pretend snoring sounds.

This isn't the first time Diana has done this. A month or so ago I thought I would give Diana a chance to sleep in Amelia's bed, but she was out of bed and wandering around within ten minutes of nap time. Today, I told her, "You can stay here, but you have to stay in bed and try to sleep." She said, "Okay," and I shut the door. I returned, quietly, upstairs to check on her several times. The first time I heard her talking quietly to herself - after that there was silence (so I sneaked in and took a picture).

Diana slept for a good two hours, though she seemed a bit confused when she woke up. I'm proud of her for staying in bed and going to sleep, even when she could have easily gotten up. Diana's a good girl who wants to grow up and be just like her big sister.
