The Crib is Finally Gone.


we took down the crib for good last night.
we laid him down, and he was crying, so pitifully at first, but we sat with him for about a half hour, and just kept on it that he had to stay in bed. he was really good, he'd start crying every few minutes and say "i can't get up, I can't walk"
but he calmed down. (i really think that getting stuck under it last year really affected him badly, and he's got such a good memory)

we left after a half hour, and he stayed there all night. i didn't sleep well, lol. i spent the whole night listening to the monitor for him. he turned on the crib aquarium a few times. i think he just rolled on them in his sleep.

he was so cute in the morning, he just trotted out, and was about to go down the hall, but i called him and he came right into our room, and was just fine and chipper. i'm so thankful!!

i don't know how it will go tonight. he's not taking his nap right now, he just came back out after about 15 minutes, lol. but i'm not going to make a big deal out of naps for now. we'll see how it goes.

What a big boy he is! I am proud of you both for not giving in and staying strong. I know how pathetic he can be when he is upset.
