Holden sleeps in his big boy bed
For the past few weeks we have had Holden’s new bed in his room, but he still slept in his crib. Then on a Wed a couple weeks ago, when his nanny watches him while I work at Colin’s school, she asked where he wanted to sleep and he said the bed. Climbed in – slept – nothing to it. When I asked him the next day he said his crib, it went on like this for a couple weeks. All of a sudden one day he said he wanted to take his nap in his bed and he did – no problem. Then last night he was in his crib but called me in there to tell me he wanted to get in his bed (he had already thrown his pillow and blanket out). I put him in and he got up one time, but then he went to sleep and slept there the whole night! Yeah!
This morning he got up around 6 and I stayed in bed to see what he would do. I think he wandered around the living room for awhile and then he decided to come and get me. He was super cute about it. So we will see how it goes from now on. I am not a fool enough to think it will be that easy, but I can hope 
Yesterday Colin told me that snails like “Al Juice” = algae. Pretty much every day he makes me laugh.
