The moment I have been waiting for and yet dreading has finally arrived. Bubba has finally discovered the ability to climb out of his crib and not be terrified of the fall. I knew this was coming and honestly perplexed it was still pending. Avez developed this talent at about 17 months and he is pushing 21 months.
So begins the long bedtime rituals of putting him down, only to have him climb out excited about his new found talent. Then placing him back in bed screaming. (There is no happy medium with this boy.) Last night this took place for just over an hour until he finally relaxed. My hand had to be stroking his hair for him to calm down. I escaped and thought about what the nights ahead are going to be like.
Transitions are never easy. After family comes it's time for the big boy bed. Wonder how that will go?
