big boy bed

So this is a little embarrassing to admit but I'm just going to throw it out there anyways. My 3 year old still sleeps in a crib. There is no good reason for it, except that with Mat and I's extreme conflicting schedules and both of our lack of good night sleep Zeke sleeping in his crib (aka baby jail) is extremely convenient. That's all. Oh and for the past year I have convinced myself that he really does LIKE his crib. SOOOOOOOOOO. That being said...Mat and I talked about it about a month ago and decided in fact it was probably way past time to get our toddler out of the crib. So tonight we changed his crib into a toddler bed. Which consisted of taking the front part off and putting a baby rail on. Not even an intense change. It's the same freaking bed just missing one side. That one side is a big deal. SERIOUSLY. HUGE. DEAL. I can happily say though that after 8 times getting out of bed. 2 potty trips. 10 times saying good night to daddy and 2 hours later...my small child has finally fallen asleep for the first time in his big boy bed. Now it's the morning that will be the next fun adventure!
