Big Boy Bed On The First Real Try

Big Boy Bed On The First Real Try


Oh yes.  Yes, we did.  Please-dont-let-me-jinx-it-by-writing-about-it.

On our trip to Evansville last weekend, we brought back my old twin bed and set it up in Tylers room.  He was immediately interested in it.  The plan was just to have it in Tylers room for a while and let him get used to the idea.  But he was immediately taken with it so I rushed out to the store to get a mattress pad in case we could get him to sleep in it that night.  

We were close, but he said he didnt want to and we didnt push it.

Then Sunday, at nap, I suggested we try to get him to sleep there.  And he did with no protesting.  Sunday night, we tried it again and he asked to sleep in his crib, but I convinced him to sleep in his bed.  And he did.  All night.  

On Monday night, he begged Joel to sleep in his crib, but Daddy convinced him to sleep in his big boy bed and he did!  All night.  (He did startle the crap out of me this morning while I was flipped upside down blow drying my hair....but it was 6:15 and a perfectly acceptable time for him to get up.)

Now the crib is outta there!  Out of sight, out of mind and he didnt even ask about it tonight.  (Pictures were taken before crib dismantling.)  Now I need to start thinking about redecorating his room so it doesnt look like a baby nursery....Theres always something, aint there?




I refuse to say "this was SOOOOO easy" because then I will for sure jinx it..... but, ya know, it wasnt sooooooo hard.  

Bring on the potty training!  Bwwaaahahahahahahha!  

(Im so screwed for saying that!)
