Our project over Winter Break was to transition Adam into his new big boy bed/room, in anticipation of our new little ones arrival! My parents were out in October and helped paint and set everything up, but we wanted to wait until we had a good chunk of time to dedicate to the big switch. Since we are not traveling this Christmas :( and we were going to be home for naps and bedtime for two solid weeks, we decided this would be the perfect opportunity, lots of consistency and plenty of down time for Mom and Dad (for naps) in case it didn't go well.

And just before we said goodnight and turned out the lights.
I must say it was all at once adorable and heartbreaking to see our little baby in this giant bed looking so tiny and so grown up all at once. But we snapped one last picture, turned out the lights and shut his door and that was the last we heard of him til morning! He talked to himself for awhile, like he normally does, but then was quiet. Every time we checked on him he was sleeping soundly and he stayed that way until the morning. We first heard him at about 7:15 (which is amazing considering he gets up for school at 6:30)!
We are now one week into the big switch and we've had some small hiccups with naptime and teething, but otherwise he has done great. We are so proud of our big boy!
