While we were away in Maryland, Daddy was home working hard at work, as well as at home. One of the many projects he completed was to take down the crib and assemble the toddler bed. He also picked up another surprise for Ethan...Star Wars sheets!! As soon as Ethan walked into his room when we got home, he was grinning ear to ear!!! He hopped right into bed, got under the sheets, and just lay there. Since it was still hours from bedtime, we handed him a few books to look at while he enjoyed his new bed:
Madeline wanted to test it out too:
I think Ethan thought it was a bunk bed:
After sitting in his room for a while, I just wasn't comfortable with the level of baby-proof in his room, but we weren't quite prepared to take care of the few things that needed to be handled before bedtime. So Doug came up with this:
I thought it seemed a little "animal-like" but, hey...it did the job!Ethan went right down to sleep that night and never left his bed. I'm typing this post about a month and a half later, and he's still doing just as good with it. He may be a wild-child, but he sure loves bedtime....and he sure loves his bed :)
