B's Big Boy Bed!

B graduated into his big boy bed at the beginning of this month. We thought he was still a little young for a big boy bed but as S's bassinet is only safe for him up to 14 pounds and he already weighed 13 pounds 7 ounces at his one month check-up we thought it was time to move B out of the crib to make room for S. Nat took B out one afternoon and while they were gone I got everything set up. B was so thrilled when he came back. He kept wanting to play in his room on his bed. The first night he was put in the big boy bed he discovered that he could get out whenever he wanted and kept sneaking out and saying "Hi!" So he finally got put back in his crib for the night. We tried it again the next day and he never got out once! He's done fantastic ever since. He has fallen out a few times in spite of gaurd rails. The first time that happened he skinned his forehead, poor baby! But since then I've put pillows around so he falls on them instead. But that has only happened 3 times. What a big boy! He's growing up so fast!

Getting tucked in for the night

Goodnight B (He won't go to sleep without his dog "Aarf" and his bear "Jean Louis")

Popping back up to say "Hi!"

Asleep on a pillow on the floor. He fell out and never even woke up. I just heard a CRASH from the other room and nothing else so I came in to see if everything was okay and this is what I found.

I am jealous! Big boy bed training did not go well at our house, so we gave up. For now. Now we're working on potty training. Also not going well.

O that is so darling! Bixente really is becoming a big boy. I can't believe that Sebastien is already 13 lb 7 oz! That's impressive :)
