BIG BOY BED

Earlier this afternoon Owain decided he no longer needed his old stink'in crib by nearly giving his momma a heart attack when he decided it would be a great idea to climb out of his crib (a first). I walked in on him with big crocodile tears standing trying to get back into his crib soothe and all.I examined him, starting with his head ending with his cute little toes. Everything looked intact just as it did before his nap. He was just a little shaken up(me too).So just like that the decision was made. It is time to turn his crib into a big boy bed. For the last couple of months hubs and I have been contemplating when would be the right time  for this big milestone.To be perfectly honest neither one of us haven't been ready.Until today. Instead of taking a nap Owain got right to work with daddy transforming his crib into a BIG BOY BED!
Oh boy the excitement in his eyes  while he worked side by side with his hero (daddy). He twirled in circles as he watched the transformation. Crib no longer he now has  his very own BIG BOY BED. Just like all of his  little friends. My baby is officially a big boy. Sniff Sniff.
Hubs and I were curious to see how bed time would go.After twenty minutes I walked in on this....
My big boy completely  in dream land. Probably dreaming about trains,,fire trucks or driving a garbage truck.
My big boy sleeping peacefully in his BIG BOY BED. Sniff Sniff. I will be ok. I still have a few years before he goes off to school. Sigh.I'll be honest I had tears in my eyes while I watched the transformation.Just like that my baby is now officially a big boy.Sniff Sniff.
He will always be my baby even when he moves out goes to college,gets married and has children of his own. Sigh. Is it just me but does time fly by extremely  fast when you have a children?

    Sofie is trying to give me a heart attack with this as well. I've been worrying about it for a couple of months. She hasn't tried to climb out yet, but I know the day is coming. I'm glad Owain went right to sleep in his new big boy bed. Let me know how it goes, maybe I will get brave! ;-)
