Now we are in for it

Aiden is clearly the early riser of our group. He has no problems waking up at 6:30 AM or....EEEK...earlier! Our only piece of mind was that he was locked up in his crib and the worst he could do was yell until I couldn't take it anymore and I dragged my carcass out of bed. Well, he has recently been practicing his best Evel Knievel impression...He was nearly climbing out of his crib and plummeting to the hardwood floors. Obviously Mama wasn't having any of that (I said "let him do it, it will toughen him up"...She said it would put him in a coma...tomato tomaaaato) so we sold the crib last night. My worst nightmare was now a reality, I had dreams that he would be in my room at 4:30 AM waking me up. Well hopefully the first night in his "Big Boy" bed....a.k.a twin mattress on the floor....was an indication that things weren't going to be so bad. He slept until 7:45 this morning! He had a little trouble going to sleep last night, and is currently putting up an epic battle over his nap time....but all in all things went good. We are scouring Craigslist and the classified ads for a more permanent mattress for him as he is currently using our guest roll out bed mattress. We are hopefully going to look at a set tonight, but they have been in storage for a while so we will have to monitor the smell factor closely!
