Cam's Big Boy Bed





I had to show you all Cam's new bed and brag a little about both of my boys. First of all, take a close look at the bed, Rod made it! I have such an amazingly talented husband. He can build anything that I ask and it ALWAYS turns out perfect. This bed is exactly like a bed from Pottery Barn that I fell in love with. Rod's been busy making me a few other things that I'll have to post about later, they're just as great!

Cameron's been in his "big-boy-bed" for two weeks now and has slept so well since the very first night. I thought that my little man would never sleep again once we moved him. Not only did he get a new bed he also changed rooms and I'd heard from people that the room change can be a lot harder than the bed change. So, needless to say, I cried and worried for days leading up to that big night. And to my surprise, he was great, it was actually too easy. We made such big deal about him sleeping in his "big boy bed" and being a "big boy" that for days he'd wake up and the first thing he'd say was "big boy!" It was so cute. I was so proud of him I really couldn't get over it. Our next big project is getting him off of the binky before the baby comes. This is a bigger concern for me because it's the one thing that I can use to bribe him to go to bed. I'm worried that once his bink is gone, so are his hours of sleep!

Hi Katie and Rod. Cool bed Rod, but now Brittany will want me to make her things and I have no skills! It's fun seeing what everyone is up to and we're glad your family is doing well. Jared
