Big Boy Sean

Our youngest is a big boy now....sleeping in a big boy bed.  It began Tuesday night.  Sean slept on his two mattresses on the floor.  He did quite well.  I stayed with him until he fell asleep and he slept through the night.  His brothers woke him in the morning because they were still excited about Sean's new digs.

Wednesday Josh and I put together the daybed while Jack and Ewan spent the day at camp (don't worry, they had fun with a pony ride and puppet show).  It went together pretty easily, even with Sean's help.  The crib is now being stored in Jack and Ewan's closet; someday we may have grandchildren that will sleep in the gorgeous crib Josh built!

After putting together the bed Sean wanted to play downstairs with Daddy.  We could tell he was getting tired, but he refused to say he needed a nap.  Before we knew it he sat next to Daddy and fell asleep! 

Wednesday night it was rough going to bed.  Not because Sean did not do well but because Jack and Ewan wanted to sleep in Sean's new bed!!  They put up a fight and whined but finally went to their own beds!  Sean went down well.  He did wake up just after 11 though, probably because he is getting his two year molars.  The rest of the night went well and his brothers woke him up again (who knew a new bed could be so exciting for ALL the boys).

All is going well.  The boys all have fun playing in the bed.  Once Sean gets settled in and will go to sleep all by himself maybe they can all have a sleep over in Sean's room.  Jack and Ewan could share the trundle bed.

The gang playing around!

Sean is still learning that he is not supposed to stand on the bed!
