Since the beginning of the year, we've been struggling with bedtime with Colin. He started climbing out of the crib in January, so he started sleeping on his crib mattress on the floor...but then he discovered a new sense of freedom. He was pretty good about staying in his room, but he would stand at his door and yell for us and cry until we inevitably caved and sat with him in his room until he fell asleep (no fun).
The night of the St. Patrick's Day party, we moved all his bedtime stuff upstairs into Reagan's room for the night and he went to sleep like a dream! So, we've kept him upstairs and he has done great! No more yelling or crying for the most part! It is a win-win situation. Since it is quieter up there, he doesn't hear us and think he is missing the party, and we don't have to be super quiet once he's in bed.
So the time has come to officially move him upstairs! We aren't going to decorate a new room for him quite yet - we just want to get him settled and see how this goes. the next step will then be for Reagan to start sleeping in her room up there as well, but I am not quite ready for that!
Anyway, I love checking on him while he is sleeping just to see what position he's in! These were all taken while he was still sleeping in his stripey/beachy room.
