BIG news around here! My BIG boy has finally moved into his BIG boy bed! Yes, my almost 3.5 year old was still sleeping in his crib and we both loved it. I think he felt safe and secure and, frankly, I loved that he couldn’t get out of bed whenever he wanted! 🙂 But, when Maxwell finally said on Sunday that he wanted to sleep in his BIG boy bed, I said “let’s do it!” So, we laid some ground rules about staying in his bed (or at least his room!) until his clock turned green, snuggled him in and went for it!
Overall, he did great. It was a bit bumpy at first – Maxwell kept wanting to get another truck, grab more books, really do anything but go to sleep and then I heard him yelling “hayulp!” in his little southern accent and went in to find this…
Not the first time this has happened but it still makes me laugh! After a rough start, he did actually fall asleep and took a great nap!
He slept again in his BIG boy bed that night and slept all night! yay! Didn’t fall out, didn’t wet the bed…go Maxwell go!!
My baby is growing up. sniff sniff.
Mixed feelings on this growing up thing – of course we want him to grow up but loving this stage of his little life so much! Go Maxwell!
Awe! Very exciting! Go, Maxwell, go!
Way to go Maxwell! Love the little steps you take every day!
Sad but true, our “little boy” is quickly becoming a “big boy”! It’s hard to believe he will be four before we know it!
