Out of the Crib

The days of putting my sleeping/drowsy/too awake babe are now behind me. This little Hercules woke me up last night to scoot over and give him some room. I knew that he could scale his crib if he was frustrated and eager to get out, but he used to just call for me and wait for me to scoop him up- wait this means I won't hear him calling for me in the middle of the night. This is really going to be different but I digress. Anyway we transformed his crib into the toddler bed and he seemed pretty excited. I loaded his bed up with all kinds of stuffed critters- a whale, a bear, Tramp from Lady and the Tramp fame and a microphone. Want to know how long he lasted? About 2 seconds before he was running back out to us laughing. It turned into a ping-pong match. Us putting him to bed and him returning to us laughing his head off. It took a breathing treatment and some serious threats to get Bam Bam down for the night. Hope this one isn't a long one ;P
