The end of an era occurred unexpectedly. You see, up until last weekend, you were still in a crib. Not just any crib though - the crib that your daddy, uncle, and brother all slept in as well. Considering that we transitioned Jackson out of the crib around his 2nd birthday, I knew this day was approaching but I just wasn't ready for it. Lately, the weekend ritual has been that Jackson climbs into your crib with you and you two have some adorable brother time. I can't elaborate much more than that though because I've been using this new routine to sleep in a bit. We don't use a monitor and the door is closed so we're not 100% sure what you two were doing in there. But we're guessing that some jumping was involved because last weekend we heard the CRASH that parents dread. We rushed in to your room to find your crib mattress on the floor and you two standing in shock among the rubble.
And so the crib came down. Daddy disassembled what was left of it and hauled its pieces to the garage. So last weekend was used for hunting down your big boy bed. Unsuccessfully.
Instead, you camped out on the floor on just your mattress. And you rocked your new sleeping arrangement!
(Notice how you go to sleep with everything in its place?)
(Yet, you seem to kick everything out throughout the night!)
You are still sleeping on that crib mattress on the floor. Your brother still goes into your room and y'all have morning playtime. And we finally decided on your big boy furniture - but it won't be delivered until we're in the new house later this month. If you want to fully transition away from babyhood with some potty training, that'd be more than alright with me, ok?
Grady slept on a mattress for a few months too! What a big boy... That knees pulled up to chest pic is precious. I love how little ones sleep just like they did when they were babies!
