We decided to put Gavin's big boy bed together last night. He sleeps horribly in his crib, going to bed at 11, waking up every 2 hours, it's so miserable. So I figured it can't get any worse, lets try a big boy bed. The boys played in their "fort" with all their bed buddies while we built, they did a very good job and were so patient. Kaden was so excited for Gavin because he actually knew what was going on.
Grandpa gave him so lights to put under his bed so he would think it was extra fun and not afraid of the dark. |
The finished product was so cute! Gavin jumped right on, literally. He felt so proud of himself and so big. We have a few things left to do to make his room just perfect for him. Hard to believe we have two big boy beds in this house now.
He laid right down at bedtime (could be because it was 10 by the time we got all done) and I laid with him just a minute and left. He just laid there happy as could be, which is a huge deal because he usually cries and cries when you lay him in his crib and does so for a long time. Then he went right to sleep. He woke up once about an hour after going to sleep and was a little confused where he was, but I went and he turned over and fell asleep again. Then he did not wake up once the whole night! That is huge in this house! He slept until 10 then sat up and called for mom. I think the big boy bed was a success! He's just not a crib guy, wants to be big like brother. I sure do love this sweet boy, can't believe he'll be 2 tomorrow.
