Upgrade to the crib-Take 2

I've been organizing and tidying up Alex's room for three days now, preparing for her transition to her crib. Three days is a long time to clean, maybe I'm doing it on purpose. I don't want my little girl to leave my side at night.
You see, she currently sleeps in the bassinet part of her playpen beside me but she is getting too heavy for it now. She's a whopping 14 lbs. And I don't think my husband would give up his bed for Alex and I to co-sleep, plus I wouldn't ask him to.
I must confess though, there is a bed for me in Alex's room, but I'm not sure if I'll use it full time or par time...we'll see what becomes of this transition to the crib.
