Big Boy Bed

This big boy is about to become a big brother. With the arrival of baby #2 just a month away we decided to get Aidan a toddler bed to be ready for when it comes time for him to pass on his crib. We really had no intentions of having him sleep in in now or even for a couple months after the baby is born. We just hoped he'd get used to it being in his room and then the transition wouldn't be as hard. 


To our surprise he loved it and asked to sleep in it. I wouldn't say he has transitioned completely but we are definitely moving in the right direction. It is so nice that the timing is up to him.....we actually don't know if we're ready for him to be able to get up on his own. We like the boundary the crib provides. Last night he wanted to sleep in his crib. Today for his nap he wanted to sleep in the 'big boy bed'. I guess we'll let him call the shots for now...

Apparently the bed is good for reading
