The "Big Boy Bed"

Chris took down Creed's crib and set up his toddler bed last night. Kady and I were at church so it was the "men" working alone. Chris said it took twice as long - because he had a little "too much" help - but at least the job is done.

Here is last night. He was all tucked in - but I had to get a picture of him. He was SO excited. He did figure out quickly that it was easy to get in and out of this bed, so daddy sat in his room until he started to drift off - just to "remind" him every so often to STAY in his bed.

Today I learned something else new. He can now reach his light switch VERY easily. So, I am sure it will not be long before we see the lights flickering off and on in the middle of the night.

Creed took ALL the daycare kids in one by one to see his bed today. He would show it to them and say "my bed" and then he would climb in and say "Creed night-night". I snapped one pic as he was demonstrating his "sleeping positions for them". And yes, I am one of those overprotective mothers that put the crib liner around the toddler bed so my little boy would not hurt his head on those hard posts in the middle of the night. Yes, I am pathetic!!

I just had to include this picture! It reminded me of an old man rocking on his porch on a hot summer day!
