Big Boy

So now that Matt has hit the big number 2!!! I thought it might be a good time to buy a big boy bed for my house. He already has a bed at Ryans and sleeps in it for 90% of the night before crawling into bed with him in the am. At my house he has his bed but its just the mattress on the floor and he doesnt like it. He sleeps with me and i totally relish every minute because one day i know that he wont sleep with me and he will be my BIG baby. So i thought it was time to buy his own "big" boy bed. I looked and looked and looked in the adds, craigslist, thriftstore and yard sales. I could NOT find a bed...i mean i can remember looking for cribs and all i could find were toddler beds..go figure. So anyways after looking and finding the price then calculating the price of gas going to pick it was just as expensive as finding one at walmart for around the same price. He got this awesome new bed

He seems to like it....although its not the same coolness of his cars bed at his dads its the SAME bed they have at his daycare. So at least its a little more familiar. It somewhat matches all the stuff in my room. We have a lot of black though but its next to Matt's dresser which is the same color so it works perfect.

One minor thing though was he had his first NIGHTMARE....my poor baby. He woke up in the middle of the night screaming bloody murder...like someone was ripping his leg off. He kept on screaming!! It took me a minute of sitting up in bed to get oriented to what the HECK was going on. i thought that he had either fallen off the bed or got up out and bed and walked into something or go turned around int he room. To say the least it really freaked me out. I held him and rocked him but he was ASLEEP!! My poor little boy was having a nightmare...poor little baby. He was sobbing so hard so we laid in bed and i just talked to him. Everytime from that moment on i would move and his little arms would go around my neck and just squeeze as tight as he could. I felt horrible but he woke up in a good mood!!
