Big boy bed

Look at our big boy! (and isn't he great at posing? LOL His sister taught him that) I can't believe how fast he is growing up.

Ty is so much younger than Katy was when we switched her to a big kid bed but we just couldn't take it any longer. Once he was able to climb out of the crib he kept falling on the floor and crying. So we turned the crib backward, with the high side facing out. But of course that made it very hard to get him in and out. So, while rearranging his room this weekend we decided we may as well bit the bullet and turn his crib into a toddler bed. Bedtime that night was hard - he got out of bed to pound on the door about 5 times. And then when he did catch on that he wasn't supposed to do that when we went in to check on him we found he had fallen asleep on the floor by the door. However, bedtimes and naptimes since then have gone ok so maybe switching to the big kid bed won't be the nightmare we were expecting it to be.
Katy of course had to be in on the photo session. And then here's Ty all set for bed. Instead of a stuffed animal or other lovey he likes to sleep with whatever book we read to him before bed.
