We decided to move Quinn out of the nursery into his own room (at least until they're on the same sleeping schedule). One concern was transitioning him to a twin bed. I had anxieties about it since time is getting cut short. I wanted to start transitioning him in January. We've been sick and still had other things to do that took priority over switching Quinn to his new room.
I moved Quinn's toys and stuff over quite a bit before the bed arrived. He was getting used to playing in there and getting dressed in his new room. When we got his bed, he was super excited about it and would play on it and around it. When I laid him down for a nap for the first time, it was no big deal. He didn't fight me on it and just accepted that was where he was going to sleep.
The first night he did fight us on going to sleep; so we put him in his crib. The next night it took longer than normal to put him down but he slept through the night. The next night he didn't fight at all. Now, he refuses to sleep in the crib. I think he likes having the extra room. He doesn't get his limbs tangled in the bars.
I admit that it was kind of weird not having him in the crib anymore. It's like a milestone...meaning that my baby boy is growing up. At the same time, I love him growing and learning. I love seeing things through the eyes of a child where everything is still new and exciting.
This is Quinn enjoying his bath time crayons. He loves these crayons!

You are such a cute pregnant lady! :) I hope to see you all this week at Caryn's for lunch-it will be fun to catch up and let our kids play!
The blanket on Quinn's bed is cute! I love the dinosaurs. I love that he loves his new room, makes me wish we had room to do that too, but hopefully one day :) You look great pregnant by the way! I'm getting excited for you!! P.S. Where did you find the crayons?? I have been looking for them, and can't find them!!
I'm glad switching Quinn went so smoothly! We will be switching Jed into his own room sometime this summer. And you look good pregnant!
Hey Guys,We are all excited for the big day coming up. Quinn will love being a big brother. Lots of fun!
