Big Boy Bed

One of the things we have always loved about Braden is the fact that he's consistently been a good sleeper. He still sleeps contently in his crib and I figured we would just keep him in there until he was in kindergarten! For some reason, Matt decided that Braden was due for a big boy bed. His crib converted into a full size bed which seems huge for our little baby.


Braden acted like a king cruising around on the mattress and box spring. He enjoyed all the attention he received from the other shoppers and employees at the store while Daddy pushed him around. Braden doesn't typically bring DeeDee the monkey out of the house, but apparently shopping for a mattress was considered a special occasion.
As usual, Braden takes every project with Daddy very seriously....
until he gets distracted with playing of course! Braden is obsessed with counting everything. He lined up his cars on one of the bed railings and discovered it made a great track!
After Braden convinced me to read 3 books to him before bed, he got cozy with several pillows and stuffed animals. We'll see how this new sleeping situation goes....

That's too cute! When I got prego, we began the process of switching Cody into his big boy room and bed so he would be sleeping throught the night before I had the baby!!! It took him a couple nights and now he does awesome for bed and naps. Our boys are getting soo big!

Beware. Karissa was an excellent sleeper until she got her big girl bed. Good Luck! And Braden just happens to be the cutest boy I know. His smile is infectious!
