Goodbye Crib!



Jacob has recently transitioned to his "big boy bed!" He was very excited to switch, and has so far been very cooperative in the transition. We explained to him that he gets a happy face on his chart if he stays in bed all night (or all throughout naptime), and so far he's done a perfect job.

For the first few days, we did have a problem where he'd lose his snuggle-toy because it'd fall off the front of the bed onto the floor, and he couldn't reach it, so he'd cry until we retrieved it for him. We've since rearranged his room so there's no longer a gap between the head of his bed and the wall, which solved the problem (and the layout makes more sense in general now that there's one fewer piece of furniture in the room).

We're leaving the crib disassembled for a few weeks, to make for a smoother transition. Eventually, once Aaron is no longer sleeping in our room, we'll put the crib back together again in Aaron's rom.
