Last night, we set up Ollie's "big boy" bed. Marge and Ed (Joel's aunt and uncle) lent us their's that's been around the family. We decided that we needed to push this transition soon because 1) there's a new baby coming, and we wanted that not to be an issue then, and 2) Ollie is climbing in and out of more stuff--I don't want him falling out of his crib!
So here are the pictures:
As you can see, he was SO EXCITED! While we ate supper last night, he just kept pointing back to his room and saying "bed, bed". So we tried it out last night. (He's just started taking his nap on a big bed at Andrea's--so we knew he can do it.) He did fine! Here's the weird part though. This morning, he is still in bed. It's 8:00am! Now, that's not unheard of...just very unusual. The weirdest part is that I've gone in there 3 times when I hear him talking--and each time he cries "More, more!" He wants me to go back out and shut the door so it's "dark". It's absolutely hilarious--this coming from the child that is immediately ON when you go in his room--talking, playing, etc. It's quite possible that he's not feeling the best though, as he has been sleeping more this weekend...but still. So unlike him!

awwww-maybe this is the key to you getting to sleep in :) i'm so glad he likes his bed! where did you get the comforter?
Wow! What a nice transition! If only everything was this easy.
Is Ollie going to be able to choose which baseball team he likes best? I suppose Luke will have some teams chosen for him as well (Do the Texas Longhorns sound at all possible)?
Seriously though, I'm glad he likes his new big boy bed.
That'a boy - stay in bed as long as you possibly can! How exciting!
The Cub's blanket was a fleece one made by Joel's mom and grandma, as well as the pillow. And no, apparently he doesn't have a choice who he cheers for!!!
