My husband and I got all excited setting up a Tinkerbell bedroom for our daughter. We thought she liked the movie so it seemed like such a natural thing to move towards doing. We never really discussed it with her. Nonetheless, a big mistake was made. The bed we bought was unsafe and some of the character depictions around the room actually scared her and gave her nightmares. We're now starting over but this time we're discussing it with Nikki to see what she really wants. Little people have opinions too and they should be listened to. You've also offered so great suggestions that we can follow. Thanks for your help, Colleen I wish I would have seen this sooner.

My home speakers are not working so I look forward to checking out the above video (at work!) soon..

perfect timing i may say. we are still in our little/ huge saga of moving. we are goign to get all of our belongings today or tomorrow after 6 months of anticipation. much excitement in the air.

my challenge is to find a common ground between the 2 girls which are very different in what they like, and also to show zoe that less is actually more. she loves decorating and some times it can be a bit too much.
i will send you some jpgs when we are somewhat done.
wish me luck.
