Well, Wednesday night we decided to put Lochlan in his big bed for the first time.
By big bed, I mean the guest bedroom has a double bed that we've decided to give him. This is for a couple of reasons.
1. It's already in the house, meaning we don't have to buy another one.
2. I want to turn the guest room into a music room since we really don't get guests that often. (And we'll get a futon or sofa bed at some point so we can have guests over :))
So this is what works.
SInce we came back from Hawaii, Lochlan has been somewhat resistant to getting back in his crib. He just doesn't like it very much anymore. I think he's getting a bit big for the crib and he's getting a bit cramped. So Wednesday we started him in the guest bedroom- long story... the short version is that there isn't enough room in his bedroom for the bed, so we're trying the bed out in the guestroom to see how he does and we'll take the crib down this weekend.
Two hours later he was finally asleep. He was pretty cute- but so excited with his new-found freedom! So he went to sleep and I moved him to his crib before I went to bed. (The guestroom is too light in the morning and he'll up at 5am if we let him stay in there.)
Last night it only took an hour...
We'll see how it goes tonight. He really does NOT want back in the crib now, so it's just a matter of convincing him he needs to stay put. Sill bug.
My baby is getting so BIG!!!
