Today, Timmy was introduced to his "big boy" bed. That is- his crib, converted into a day bed. We wanted to hold off on this, but with daycare coming up and Timmy needing to learn how to get to sleep outside of a crib, it became necessary.
Fresh with memories of Timmy's cousin Katie escaping her bed and making things overall more difficult outside a crib than in, Mommy and I were very prepared for a long battle as Timmy adjusted to his new freedom.
After walking him to his bed at night and watching him crawl in, we tucked him in and gave him his cup of milk. As we walked out of the room, he leaned up on his elbow to watch us go. A minute later, complete silence from the room. We gave him 5 minutes, and still nothing. With growing concern, Mommy snuck upstairs to find Timmy fast asleep in his bed, no fuss.
Apparently, the "big boy" bed was no "big" deal. Ha!
