Selling the Castle Bed

This weekend we got the idea to get Hailey a Loft bed. We haven't found one yet but the plan was we'd sale Hailey's castle bed. This is the bed she transitioned into from her crib. I put the bed on Craigslist on Saturday and that night i got an e-mail about someone wanting it. They came Sunday after churcha and it was SOLD!

I really didn't think i'd take it as hard as i did. Hailey was ready and had no problem as for her she was getting a "bunk bed" To her they are the same although she knows she'll get to play under her bed. Let me tell you that night it was really hard for Hailey. Not because she missed her Castle bed but because she was expecting a new bed that day.

We haven't found a loft bed that we like or that is in our price range. Let me tell you there are some nice ones out there but i'm not spending $2,000 on a bed for her. So now Andy and his dad are going to make a bed a loft bed for her. I"m looking forward to it as i'm sentimental that way when things are handmade. So now Hailey is drawing her plans for her new bed. As soon as it is done i'll post some pictures but as for now here is her big girl bed that now belongs to a little girl who is 18months. I know she'll love the bed as Hailey got the bed at that age and we had some fun memories in that castle bed.
