Big Boy Bed

We finally got Landon's toddler bed turned into a full bed. We have been needing to do this for a while seeing as how we needed the mattress for one of the cribs. So, this weekend...mission accomplished. We were a little worried about this transition because Landon has been sleeping with us since November when we went to Vegas. He slept in Nana's bed for the four nights we were gone, and he has been in our bed ever since. Fortunately, the transition hasn't been bad at all. Like we expected, one of us has to lay down with him for a little while until he drifts off to sleep, but then he does great. So far, he has slept in his new big boy bed twice..sat and sun night. Saturday night, he woke up terrified and walked into our room sobbing at 4:30 am, and I just had to let him climb up into bed with us. Sunday night, he made it all the way till 5:00 am, and then calmly walked into our room to get in bed with us...no crying this time. We figure it is okay for him to come to our bed for a while, while he gets used to being alone in his own room again. At this point, we are just so proud of him for making it almost the whole night! We thought it would be much harder on him than it has been. Anyhow...we hope he continues to do so well in his own room because we are about to add two more babies to our room!

Lucky you! Ella started sleeping in our bed in November. We got her a big girl bed in February, and we can't get her to stay in it. I love snuggling with her, but I want my bed back. Can you come help me get her to sleep?? LOL. So proud of your Big Boy!
