Well as many of you know this was the weekend that Jake made his full transition to his new big boy room and bed. Prior to Friday night he has only napped in his new big bed. I was nervous for Friday night. When I put him down for his nap on Friday afternoon it was a little bitter sweet knowing this would be the last time Jake slept in his crib. After his nap I took everything out of the crib and striped the mattress...there was no going back!
We did our normal routine in the new bed, closed the door and watched him on the monitor I very happy to report he fussed for three minute, then curled up and went to bed. I was worried that he would wake up scared in the middle of the night, but no, he slept till 7:30 then talked and played happily till 8! David and I were both shocked. The rest of the weekend went great going down with little to no fussing and sleeping like a champ. (I am knocking on wood as I type this) The transition went much better than I thought it would go. I think it helped that we have been playing in that room alot and he helped me but his book and stuff in there. The only hard thing has been he wants to be rocked, I have closed the nursery off and he does not get why we can't go in there right now to rock. But he has handled it like a champ and we just read books in his new bed.
I need to get a picture, it's just hard to figure out the logistics.
Now it time to focus on getting the nursery ready! Only six more weeks give or take.
