Crawling and Toddler Beds

September 29, 2009 7:52 pm

A week ago I would have bet a million dollars that the transition into a toddler bed with Miles would have been horrible. Absolutely horrible. Well…I would have lost a lot of money. You’d never believe it but he’s doing a great job!! Before:

After:

"Sit on the bed, mama?"
He really was THAT excited about the new bed.

He was so excited about his new bed. He couldn’t wait to go to sleep. Granted, we did have to put him back into bed 10 or so times but he finally fell asleep. Today at naptime he didn’t try and crawl out at all! Then tonight he only got out once. I. Am. So. Lucky.

Ms. Lyla has been gearing up to crawl for the past several weeks. Last Saturday it finally clicked. She is now on a mission to get every toy she isn’t allowed to touch into her mouth.

At least I can count on Miles to rip it out of her hands (and then kindly hand her one of her toys).

Miles has been a lot more affectionate lately. He loves “butterfly kisses” and even leaned over to kiss lyla when I asked him to!

He leaned in to give her a kiss!!

Riding horsey is a daily occurance now. We can’t sit on the floor without him crawling on our back asking “ride the horsey?”

Potty training is going well. He pretty much has #1 down (except for a few accidents here and there). #2 is a different story and is usually taken care of in hiding or during naptime.

Lyla loves her daddy time. She reaches out for him to hold her when he comes home from work.

I love my daddy

Here’s Miles helping me blow out my birthday cake.

I still think he thinks it is his bday
