Billy's Big Guy Bed


So this week isn't so much about catching up on Squishy's past milestones as recognizing her big brothers recent major accomlishment. He made the move into his big boy bed! It's only been in his room for a year now. He just decided to climb out of his crib after his nap on Saturday and we let that go for a few days, mostly because it was hilarious, but he was ready to sleep in his dinosaur bed so we did it. The entire process took about 2 and a half minutes as compared to his older sister who screamed and cried and had to be baby gated into her room. Boys are just so much simpler than girls on every front. Hopefully it stays so simple.

Billy would wake up in his crib be it from a nap or overnight and instead of crying or making a huge fuss he just yells "Mom, I'm awake." All as one word. He is so incredibly funny. Then one day he comes walking down the stairs after his nap and goes, "Mom, I got outta my bed." Very matter of fact and I was kinda shell shocked because how did he get out of his bed? There was no thump on the floor or mark on his body. If that had been Emi she would have been screaming or completely unable to stay in her bed for ever after she figured she didn't actually have to be there. That's probably about when her naps stopped. Time will tell if Billy follows in her footsteps or continues to prove my theory that boys are just simple.
