What's This............A Big Boy Bed!

Well after denying the fact for many weeks, Jacob has officially grown out of his crib. Good news for him, not so good for us for now we have a toddler that is mobile at 5 am, or if he chooses the middle of the night. Lucky Us. Well we just couldn't resist getting him the cutest bed we could possibly find, and thank god for craigslist, so we didn't have to pay an arm and a leg for that special first BIG BOY BED!


Now what bed could be cuter........than a race car bed. And it is so fitting since one of Jacob's newest obsession is to play with his hot wheels and watch the Cars movie.

So we started by climbing in and out of the bed for a while, still sleeping in the crib. He was not quite ready to make the commitment the first two nights.

The next step was for Jacob to pretend to sleep in the bed. He did this for two days.
More pretending.........


Finally this morning before we left for daycare we said our goodbyes to the crib. We gave the crib a hug and a kiss, and when we came home the crib was gone. We took our afternoon nap there with only getting out of bed twice. We'll see what the first night in the bed holds for us.
