Big Boy Bed

We finally did it, and changed Sean's crib to a toddler bed! We have been talking about it for awhile now, but then the weekend gets away from us and we decide to wait until the next weekend.

Last night was the night. Graham changed it right before bed time and Sean thought is was awesome! That is until it came to actually sleeping in it. I think it was a little scary for him at first, as he seemed concerned. Amy suggested putting a baby gate in his doorway to keep him confined to his room, GREAT idea! I couldn't tell you how many times his door would open and he'd shout out, " Mommy!" We took turns putting him back into bed and tucking him in. All in all, it only took 30 minutes for him to be out cold! I was really shocked.

Today's nap, however, is a different story. As I am writing this, he has been opening and shutting his door for the last hour. He has been naked twice, emptied his dresser once, put his puzzles together, and has read all the books in his room. Ahhh, too cute. I am letting him explore his new found freedom while checking on him regularly. I am hoping one tired little busy body will crash out soon!

Enjoy your Saturday!

Oh, nap time is always the hardest! I hope he figures it out quickly; I'm glad that last night went so well!

(We cheated and put Sofie to sleep in her crib for naps for about a month after we transitioned her to sleeping in the big girl bed at night. Surprisingly, she still did well at night time and when I finally took down the crib and moved her over to the bed for naps, she seemed to do the nap transition so well! Just in case you're getting desperate, thought I'd share. ;) )
