Ethan's toddler bed

We changed over Ethan's crib to a toddler bed.
Yesterday was the third morning in a row that he climbed out of his crib. I actually opened his door just in time to see him do it. Took him all of maybe 1 second to climb out of his crib, like he'd been doing it for years. So even though he is now a seasoned professional, he could still get hurt, so toddler bed it is.
He did quite well in his new bed last night. We put him down and he stayed in his bed for a while. Then he got out and wandered around and Braden went in there, put him back in his bed and told him it was bedtime and he needed to go to sleep. And there he stayed until about 7 this morning. When he got up, he just sat in his bed for a while. I saw him on the monitor get out of bed, but then he went back and just sat some more until I came and got him. Hopefully he stays that easy. Naptime on the weekend could be a challenge, but napping at day care has prepared him since he just sleeps on a mat on the floor.

So cute that you got to see him climb out and get back in his bed. What would we do without video monitors?!
