Big Boy Bed

Because Henry has been sick, he's been sleeping everywhere but in his crib. At night we was sleeping with us, during the day he would nap on the futon downstairs. I even caught him sleeping at the table. Craziness!

So, we decided it was time to get a new bed. I was actually hoping to take advantage of the crib, since it turns into a toddler bed, but no such luck. And even though we have a full size bed in Natalie's room, I was using it when Natalie was sick. So...off to the mattress store we went. We ended up buying another full size mattress and frame and set it up in his room. He still wants someone to sleep with him (he got used to sleeping with us...bad, I know). But this way Daryl or I can lay down with him until he falls asleep, then we can sneak out. Easier said than done. Daryl keeps falling asleep too. He won't wake up even if I touch him. Amazing. So, lately I've enjoyed an entire king size bed to myself. At least Daryl shares a brand new bed. It's quite comfortable, so I don't feel too bad for him. I still need buy some bedding though, a quilt or comforter for the top. Again, this whole big boy bed wasn't in the immediate plan. Oh well.

Are you sure you don't just leave Henry in his chair until he falls asleep!? Nice bed for a boy!

Sometimes we do. Whatever works, you know.
