Round two...

What started in August as another right of passage for my sweet boy, turned into a 3 week nightmare for Matt and I. We thought that since Henry was two we should try the big boy bed. Since his crib converted into a kind of half toddler bed, we gave it a whirl. For the first week, we could hardly get him to stay in bed. It was so bad at one point we were locking the door on him. How horrible did I feel just admitting that right now?!

After three exhausting weeks, we gave in and put the tired bubba back into his safety net, his beloved crib. For two months, we were home free 12 hour nights and 2 to 2 1/2 hour naps during the day. Then one fateful evening while Matt was out of town, I heard the door slam downstairs, my baby bubba had managed to climb OUT of his crib. He was so proud of himself! He beamed at me, "Mama I sleep with you, K?"

So we are entering round two of the big boy bed saga. With a totally new bed in hand and Toy Story sheets surrounded by every known stuffed animal on the blanket, we will venture forward into the world of the unknown. Pray for us first timers!!!
