Here's an earlier shot of her in her own bed. Mind you, she still spent most of the night in my and my wife's bed. Co-sleeping FTW.
I think mom was way more worried than either VB or myself. I'm glad it's only for one night, though.
So... I use Pinterest. (Jumped on that bandwagon kind of late actually) And it's pretty awesome. I have one board where I post everything that has to do with VB. Any time there's an article on FB or the interwebs that I find relevant, I pin it. The board is already quite full. But there's nothing like a little mass marketed mania to give me pause.
While all this information is overwhelming, I take great comfort in the communal knowledge that I have gained with these resources. A big one that has had me more than a little scared is knowing when and actually having the sex talk with my daughter. I'm still a ways off, yet, but spending our first night alone is cake next to having this conversation. Fortunately, some of my pinned resources will make it easier. Like THIS, for instance. Armed with this information and more, I might just make it through raising my daughter without making a complete ass of myself. (I said a COMPLETE ass of myself. It's already too late in many respects)
17 months old and she's getting pretty good with a fork and spoon.
