Big Boy Bed

So tonight is my baby’s first night in his “big boy bed”. The mattress arrived this morning. J didn’t notice a thing. He fell asleep on the couch this afternoon and I carried him up to my bed for his nap. Meanwhile, I washed the new mattress pad and made his bed up with his new animal sheets.  After his afternoon snack, I prompted J upstairs by telling him I had a great surprise waiting for him in his room. Intrigued, he followed me and his eyes seriously lit up when he saw his bed. He was soooo excited, he screamed “yeeaaaaaaaaaah” with laughter and jumped on the mattress, inspecting every inch. He played on it for about an hour…..pretending to sleep……touching and naming all the animals…….playing “tim-ber”………jumping on the bed. I just can’t believe my baby is such a big boy!!
