Big boy bed!

We'd been telling Jack for awhile that soon he was going to start sleeping in a big boy bed, so it wasn't a surprise to him when we brought one home last Wednesday (it was FINALLY in stock at Ikea). He was SO excited! I'd been a little worried about how the transition would go, since I've heard some stories from friends whose kids would get up all hours of the night and get out of bed and play or wander into their parents' bedroom. I guess Jack was ready though, because that first night, we didn't hear a peep out of him until the next morning when he called for us to get him up! And as I type this, he is going on hour three of his nap, so I think he is officially done with the crib. I was actually a little sad when I realized that we wouldn't put him down in his crib anymore...very soon, though we'll have another little guy that will fill that empty bed...Have I mentioned that they are going to share their room?  

He helped Rob put it together...He wanted to be involved every step of the way. 

When bedtime finally came, he didn't even hesitate to climb in. 

I loved being able to read his book right next to him in the bed.

All tucked in with Gobble-Gobble by his side.
