Milestones and Transitions


Nathan is currently making the transition to the big boy bed which is quite a milestone. He never showed any desire to crawl out of his crib and we wouldn't have tried to transition him at this point except that we have the new baby coming and didn't want to wait too long. So we let him pick out the bed and the sheets, which of course were Thomas and Friends. The first night was awesome. The next day for nap and and bedtime were much less smooth. He figured out he could get out and run around, try to leave and this was a whole new experience for him. He also fell out of bed on the second night and remained asleep except for a small cry. So yesterday we installed a guard rail and after a trip the zoo he slept soundly. However, naptime today was another struggle. Luckily he went down without too much of a fight. Just like any change, it will take time, but he will get there...hopefully sooner than later.
