The Big Boy Bed

We went for the king sized bed!  It's fantastic!  Although I do kind of miss Robert so I do have to make an effort to roll over to his side of the bed lol.  It's rough.

Will has been sleeping on a crib mattress on the floor for a few months now with no tumbles onto the floor so we decided to move the queen size into his room.  We did stick a pool noodle under the fitted sheet to keep him in bed.  He never was a fan of the crib and as soon as he moved out of the crib and onto the mattress on the floor he was taking 3 hour naps in the afternoon and sleeping through the night occasionally.  Whuuuut?  Where the F is that tidbit in the sleep training books that I tossed well over a year ago?  FYI some babies f-ing hate their crib and want you more.  Which we loved ;)

So really the king size will be more useful for our next babe.  (Don't read into that statement.)

Anyway, he was freaking pumped when he saw the queen sized bed in his room!  He is consistently sleeping through the night!  I have even bragged about it a couple times and he is still sleeping in his room all night;)  Now I just have to remember to not stay up til midnight because he is up at 6am.  No wasting the day away in this house :)

The plus side to a queen sized bed is that if he does wake up at 6am one of us will crawl into bed with him now and he sleeps another hour or two ;)...usually.

Now to pick out the bedding!  He will eventually swap beds with S.  The queen size takes up about 3/4 of his room.  And it's just not fair that the biggest child has the smallest bed.

Can't wait to reveal the comic themed bedroom!!  Yay for geek-chic!!!

  1. Comic themed room?!? I want a comic themed room...

    But his Calvin & Hobbes room is so cute! I'll be sad to see that go (are you worried about Will becoming "a Calvin"?) Actually, I'll take his Calvin room :)

  4. Yep he is! I have recently found out that the creator of Calvin and Hobbes was all against consumerism so never gave up the rights to have the comic marketed...other than the actual comic books.

    So! Will's room is done! Found some uber cute bedding at Target :) It was really hard to find cute comic book themed bedding that wasn't $20 a yard before even having someone sew it :s

    I'll toss in a couple "Pow" "Whap" pillows :)
