Announcement!

Okay, so I have announcement to make...Carter is "toddler bed trained!" What I mean is that after a week of putting him in his toddler bed, rubbing his back and singing for about 5 minutes, he now goes to sleep in a matter of seconds when I put him in his bed. ~ Love him sooo much right now.

When he was in his crib, we would put him down regardless if he was tired for his naps and bedtime and he would fuss, but there was no fighting it when he couldn't escape...so when it came time for the toddler bed, he was so excited to realize he would escape if he wanted. But now he is trained and I couldn't be happier.

In the very beginning of this whole toddler bed thing, he didn't put it together that he could get out of the bed whenever he wanted...one night I put him to bed like usual and Scott was already asleep (so that he could wake up at 2:45am) and I guess Carter put it together at that moment because Scott said he noticed Carter's bedroom door open, he heard Carter crawling out of his room and to our bedroom door so that he could go out into the basement and play with his toys. That's when I knew that I better get him trained before he thinks it's okay~ and now I'm happy to announce that he doesn't fight sleeping anymore and goes down without a peep!
