A big weekend at the Wiles’ house!!!
For the past few weeks, Amy has been getting into Elizabeth’s bed every night when we say it’s time for bed. One night, she even went so far as to tell me that Izzy could sleep in her bed. So, we decided to try the big switch. We converted her crib to a toddler bed. Friday night, we switched it over. We left all the parts out, just in case we had to switch it back at 3am. Once she saw it, she was ready to go to bed at 6pm! We convinced her to eat dinner first, and then we would go to bed. We’ve been calling it the “Big girl bed’, but she just calls it her “girl bed”. So cute!
She is hot stuff in that bed. She has done SO WELL!!! Never getting out of it! It’s funny to notice how she sleeps in it..before she would sleep plastered to the side of the crib. Now, she sleeps all sprawled out in the middle of the bed. My little baby is really growing up!!!

On another note, we are in the process of trying to find out why Elizabeth can’t hear. I had her hearing tested at school a while back, and she failed part of the test. Since we finally have real insurance on the girls again, we are trying to get it checked out. I called the ped. And they wanted to send her right to therapy. I disagree. So, long story short, we are waiting on a call from the ENT dr to make an appt. I called a friend of a friend at the school for the deaf here in Jackson, and she recommended that we just go to the ENT, b/c Elizabeth would end up there anyway. Of course, she can’t diagnose her without seeing her (the deaf school lady), but she said it sounded very reasonable that she had a wax build up, or even fluid on her inner ear. Of course, if the child needs therapy, we will get therapy for her. But, at this point, I really feel that’s premature. Anyhow, just say a prayer that we can get in soon and get this resolved, and of course that the problem can be fixed either in the office or with medication, and that it will not require surgery or anything else.
I just now got a call from the ENT—we go on Feb 26. I feel relived already; we’re going to be fine!!!!! Keep praying!!!
