We have a BIG boy on our hands now!

Out with the old and in with the new....bed that is! We have drug our feet long enough and FINALLY felt that it was time to get our big boy into a big boy bed and out of his baby bed. Most of my friends have children Cort's age, but also have a little one that quickly followed the first, so they were forced to transfer the first one into a toddler bed. Well, that wasn't the case with us, so we were stuck trying to decide when we should transition him into a toddler bed. After all, a toddler bed gives your toddler more freedom to rome around in the morning when your not awake, right? Exactly!! That's why we have waited so long. We always told ourselves that when he started crawling out of his bed then we would make the transition. Well, that never happened. He did, however, start crawling into his bed?!?! That was about the time we figured it was time. AND plus he was 3 and getting a bit heavy lifting him into that bed at night. We decided that the transition would go better if we got new bedding with a character that he loves. So, we found a Spiderman bedding set and a cute cute cute sleigh bed!!



He absolutely loves his new bed. He was so proud that he was now sleeping in a 'big boy' bed.



Here he is all tucked in with his babies, ready for nite-nite......(Mommy and Daddy were a bit anxious wondering if this was going to be a long night of up and down with him?!?!?!)



To our surprise, he did not get up one time. Fast asleep he fell.....



He didn't get up all night long! We were so afraid that we were going to wake up with him standing there looking at us, but he didn't. I think he was waiting for me to come and get him out of bed this morning like usual. He layed there chatting until I came in to get him. He looked up at me and smiled really big. Then he hopped out of bed and told me that this was his big boy bed and babies sleep in his other bed! WOW! Our little man is getting so big. I'm happy and sad all wrapped in one....
