bedtime update...

i posted earlier today about pooks' new car bed and i was unsure of how he would do when it was time to actually sleep in it but he did great!

nap time this afternoon was a bit rough. pooks loved the bed but he loved climbing into and out of the bed even more. first he "needed" a book, then he "needed" a stuffed bear, etc. i gave him a kiss and told him to go night-night...then i hid in the hallway to watch. it took 3 or 4 times of reminding him to lay down and stay laying down, before he got it. the whole ordeal took about 10 minutes which overall i didn't think was too bad.

bedtime was even better. we did our normal story/book thing, bedtime kisses and i shut off the light. pooks' didn't get up at all. he curled right up and has been that way for over an hour-so far.
i just hope that if he wakes up tonight, he's able to fall back asleep on his own. as is i'm awake at midnight and then 3:30am with peanut and as much as i love pooks, i'd love him even more if he continues to sleep all night!

  1. Soooo Cute!!! I can remember my kids way back when and they didn't get big beds until about 3 or so and they were always getting up.
