Big Boy Room & Bed!

Yesterday afternoon and night Tim and I decided to take the plunge and switch Kylan into his new room. Of course we left the crib up in his old room just in case. After making a huge deal out of his new "big boy room" we crossed our fingers and put him down for his first night in a real bed. We have double mattress and box springs, but not frame which we will get later when we are sure he won't fall out of bed - we decided to skip the toddler bed thing. After putting him back in bed I don't know how many times and dad cuddling with him for a few minutes so he knew he was safe, he fell asleep and we didn't hear a peep until his normal wake-up time this morning of about 8:00. He didn't fall out of bed, freak out in the night or anything and we are so proud of him! We even did a "We are proud of you cheer" for him this morning (my family will appreciate that)! He loved that Tim and I could cuddle in bed with him this morning and that he could wait and get out by himself when he was ready - in his crib sometimes I could go and shower before he was ready to actually get out of bed!
We are so proud of him - now I get to tackle nap time today! Hopefully it will go well also!

Picture of Kylan's room from the hallway door. We are going to put a chair rail up between the blue and off-white when we finish the window seals in his room. We will also be putting blinds up when we finish the seals.

Ky's room from the door leading into the living room. Since this room has a door off of the living room we are hoping that most of his toys will stay in here and so far they have.

A very happy and still sleepy boy this morning in his big boy bed!

You are so smart to start this way before the baby gets here! Don't they look so little in the big bed? If you are still worried about him falling out, we got Parker a bedrail for about $20 at Target or Babies R Us that kept him from ever rolling out in his sleep. I hope you are still feeling well with your pregnancy. Tell Kade congrats for us--we got his wedding announcement yesterday!

Congrats on the big boy bed! He is getting so big... it's crazy how fast they grow up! Thank you for your love and support! We miss you guys so much! I won't be able to make it to Kade's wedding, Darren will be there though. We will have to plan a trip up in the next couple of months to see everyone and your new little girl!
