Well as of last week Thomas is officially sleeping in his "big boy bed" in his "big boy ball room"! It all started last Sunday night when he awoke scared and wet. Travis and I had gone to the Sunday night Colts game (my first) against the Chargers so the babysitter had put him to bed. When he woke up he wanted me and didn't want to get back in his crib. I was tired (read: I didn't want to change his bedding in the middle of the night) so I asked him if he just wanted to lay down with mama in his big boy bed. He said yes and away we went. He immediately fell asleep with me beside him and I slipped away to my bed. In the morning he woke up with a big smile on his face so proud of himself for sleeping in his big boy bed just like Matt(Amy's oldest). The next day he stayed home with me so I put him in his big boy bed for naptime and he did great. At bedtime I asked him if he wanted to sleep in his crib or his big boy bed and he said "bid boy bed".
He's been sleeping in there since and seems quite happy with his new room. In fact I don't even think he's been back to his old room since last week! We've moved his toys into there and I've started moving his clothes over. Now we just need to relocate the "spare" closet to the guest room so he can have a closet again. We're still working on getting him to go to bed at a decent time as he seems to be a night owl like his mom and dad. We've all been doing better at this week though and bedtime seems to be getting easier. We're so proud of how big our baby is getting and all the big boy adventures he's embarking on!!
