My baby's growing up

Tonight James and I decided it was time to move Corbin to a big boy bed. His crib converts to a toddler bed, so we changed it over. He was so excited. He loves his new bed. In a couple of months meemaw and papa Murphy are getting him a set of bunk beds, but for now, the toddler bed is perfect for him.

Before we laid him down for the night, we gave him two "big boy bed rules":

1. No getting out of bed once mommy and daddy lay you down for sleep.

2. No jumping on the bed. In the crib he could jump, but with no rails, I don't want him to jump on the bed at all. I'm afraid he'll fall and break a leg lol.

So of course, he broke rule #1 about 10 minutes after we laid him down. So he had to have a spanking. Poor buddy. But he only did it once. He was asleep about 15 minutes later and is still asleep now. Hopefully the rest of the night goes well.

It's bittersweet. I'm glad he's growing up in to such a smart, fun little man, but it's hard to hit all these "big boy" milestones. Makes me miss the tiny little guy we brought home from the hospital 28 months ago.

It is an awful lot of fun to watch him grow up though.
