New room for a big boy


So lately bedtime and nap time at our house has been rough on all of us because Oliver learned to pull himself up to stand in his crib. We were so proud of him at first until we realized that he didn't know now to lay back down and go to sleep. So after he screamed his head off for a few minutse we'd get up and lay him back down. This went on numerous times a night even sometimes at 4:30 in the morning. Now he can lay back down he just refuses to because he can see us sitting in the living room and screams even louder for us. This meant that this past week Shawn and I went to bed most nights around 8pm too. The little stinker would stand there and laugh and us then his pacifier would fall out of his mouth so then all we heard was "UH OH" repeated over and over again until we didn't come put it back in his mouth then he'd scream. That's right he's learned to say that too now. So vocabulary is now up to momma, dada, duck, quack, and uh oh. It seems like he's saying other things at times but not in context yet.

Oliver's room this morning

We realized that it was time to move him upstairs and away from seeing us to help his sleeping we hope. This process started last weekend with Shawn and I cleaning out one of the spare bedrooms upstairs. Now today, we took apart his crib and moved everything upstairs.



Oliver's new big boy room

Stay tuned on how tonight goes for both Oliver and us. I think momma will have a harder time than Oliver with the move. Time to use the baby monitor again.
