Guess who is going to bed in his "new" big boy bed and sleeping cuddled up with his transitional objects and Mr. Bow the Carnevale costume? We unscrewed a side of the bed, and I'm not even sure if the manufacturer suggests that since they also sell a "toddler bed" kit with a larger mattress but aside from having to figure out a way to keep the world's most restless sleeper from falling out (right now we prop our large couch cushions outside the bed after he falls asleep), it's working for us! I expected tears. I expected tantrums and fits. But he has gone pretty willingly all things considered. I guess he sensed the family bed jig was up. And he likes that he can get in and out by himself, which means we do often get an early morning visitor. Anyway, small victories, small victories...

yay your bed all to yourselves! I hope you also get better nights of sleep. Over the summer S decided some nights that she wanted to sleep on this crappy old sofa bed we have in her room. It is v narrow and there is a dangerous gap down the back, so i put the baby rail there. The usual 'sofa' seating is a long narrow mattress which i put on the floor next to the 'bed' part in case she fell. It was classic, throughout the night she would change levels, and even make herself another level on the rug. Hope Dylan has just as much fun in his bed! V
