Toddler Bed Transition

A week or so ago, Kaylee climbed out of her crib and would not sleep in her bed. She would climb out and then climb back in to get stuffed animals or a blanket and then climb back out to play with them. Then she would climb back in to get more and climb back out to play. That night she slept on the floor. The next night she did the same thing, but ultimately climbed back in to go to sleep. The next day was Easter. She would not go to sleep for her nap and climbed out again. I told her if she climbed out again, the Easter Bunny was going to come and take back the tricycle he had just brought her that morning. This did not phase her at all, because she did it again. So, Mr. Easter Bunny took back the trike and she did not take a nap. That night coming home from my parents house, she fell asleep in the car, so when we got home, we put her in the crib and she stayed there all night as she was already asleep. The rest of the week went that way too. Until Friday.....She slept on the floor again that night and Saturday too. Then on Sunday, when she wouldn't nap again, we converted it to a toddler bed. That night we had gone to dinner for my brother-in-law's birthday, and again she feel asleep in the car on the way home. So, she slept in her new bed that night, but every night since she has slept on the floor. I don't know if she just needs to adjust to it or if she just doesn't like it. I feel terrible with her sleepting on the floor, but it does not seem to bother her at all.

Any thoughts on this??? I'd appreciate any ideas or advice.
