Henry's big boy bed

Back in November, Henry moved into a big boy full-sized bed.  To be honest, I'm not exactly sure why we did it when we did... I suppose tradition?  When Madeline turned 2, we were pregnant with Henry, so moving her to her own bed was a necessity to clear up the crib.  Her 2-year old birthday present from Grandma Rita was her big girl bedding.  So the tradition continued with Henry that he got construction truck bedding for his big boy bed.  We weren't exactly sure when we'd move him, but there there was a mattress sale for Veteran's Day (because that's how you properly celebrate federal holidays in this country!!  geesh!) and so then we bought the mattress.  So voila - Henry now sleeps in this big huge full bed on his own.  The transition was actually very, very easy, and we already have a full routine established.  He never had a phase where he got out of bed - whether in the crib version of the toddler bed or the full bed, so we consider ourselves lucky that we didn't have a reset on sleep schedules or habits.  He looks so cute in this big huge bed!
