big boy bed

Tonight Nick is busy building Bennett his new toddler bed.  With B's brothers impending arrival, we though it was time to transition him to his new bed so he can get used to it.  Hopefully this well help him feel less upset about his brother taking over his crib once he is here.

Nick had it up and ready in about an hour.  Bennett was reluctant at first.

But in no time, he was busy rolling around laughing on the bed.

And, crawling on and off the bed.

At bedtime, Daddy and B read a book sticking to the usual routine before we tucked him in for the night.

Bennett was ready for bed and fell asleep without giving us any trouble.  I am keeping the monitor close by tonight to make sure he doesn't fall out.

I must have checked the monitor a hundred times.  Bennett stayed in bed the entire night and slept all the way through.  He woke up a bit on the early side around 6 AM.  He did not crawl out of the bed like I thought he would but cried out and waited for me to come and get him.  I don't think he realizes he can climb out on his own yet.  I am proud of my big boy for making this transition so seamlessly.
