Big Boy Bed

Well Angie worked later than Greg yesterday so Greg was picking up David.  However, when Greg called to see if David was still napping David suggested he get to play a little longer.  So, that was a perfect opportunity for Greg to get home take down David's crib and put up his new bed.  We knew we would have to do this with David gone because he was so against moving to his new bed.
As Angie finished work she picked David up and arrived home with him just as Greg was taking the mattress upstairs. 
David ran up the stairs straight into his room excited to jump on his bed... good sign.  He was excited until bed time and then requested his crib.  He was up three times in the first ten minutes of being in his bed, but the last time he stayed in and slept until about 6:45 this morning.  Not as long as normal, but still stayed in bed all night.  We heard him stir, watched him hop out of bed on the monitor, and then heard his little feet running across the tile into our room.  When he arrived he was very dissatisfied that there was not quite enough room for him in Mommy and Daddy's bed.
Naptime today is a different story... he is still awake!  This Mommy had a list of housework, work, and a nap on her list.  So much for plans!
UPDATE: After an hour and a half of putting David back in his bed, he is now sound asleep... persistence with this little guy is key.
Here are a few pictures of David at bedtime last night.

  1. Love the bedding and wall paint. It does almost look like a crib with the tall railing. I hope he does well again tonight. I guess he will be super tired since he didn't have a good nap.

  2. I just had to log on to see how it went. I know nap time wasn't picture perfect but glad the "firsts" went as well as they did. Jennifer
