Goodbye, Crib!

When TJ started escaping his crib one month shy of his 2nd birthday, I thought it was early. I didn't think about TJ teaching Jojo how to get out of the crib, and how that might mean Jojo was done with the crib even earlier!

Two months shy of his 2nd birthday, we took the front off of Josiah's crib to convert it to a toddler bed. Unlike Thomas, who gracefully (and constantly) escaped as an almost 2-year-old, we had to do it because Jojo was going to hurt himself falling out.

And unlike Thomas, Jojo took to the idea instantly. He didn't run around the room, he didn't cry at the door, he didn't fall asleep in places other than the bed...instead, even when he wakes up in the morning or from a nap, he often sits in bed and cries until someone comes and gets him. A much easier transition!

Of course TJ needed to try out the toddler bed too!
