Big Boy Bed

Cooper has been in his new bed for a few weeks now. We started off with the mattress on the floor then added the box spring today. He's only fallen out of the bed 2 times and was found curled up on the floor.
He took to the bed with no problems. I did some reading to see how to introduce the bed to him. This is how we did it:
1. brought the bed upstairs.
2. got cooper ready for bed and got the bed ready for his room
3. and he crawled right in and went to sleep!

I had read to make it a big celebration, let him pick out his own sheets, introduce the bed slowly. So happy we didn't have to do all of that.

The absolute best thing about Cooper being in a bed: In the morning when we hear him throw his door open and his little feet pitter pattering down the hall. He throws open our door and says "HI". We've had a few moments where he wakes up earlier than we'd like and that's taking some getting used to-so the tv is our friend in the morning as we are getting ready. The wake up call is the best way to start the morning.
