The Big Boy Bed




Preston was getting to the point where he wanted someone to lay by him at night time. Over President's Day weekend we saw a an advertisement for a mattress sale and that is all it took. We dropped Parker off at school and went and bought a new mattress complete with new sheets and mattress pad for Preston.

We bought him Cars sheets, and thank goodness they had a new design out so we could tell the difference between his and Parker's car sheets. Although Parker keeps asking to have Preston's sheets put on his bed.

Jim came up with this great way of setting up the beds. This actually allows one parent to lay by both boys if they wanted to. We lay on a diagonal and one gets our feet and the other our head. Usually you can reach them both with your arms.

Preston was very excited to have his own bed. He is the laid back one and will often just get in and cover himself up and fall asleep with out much effort.

They were so excited to have the new bed, they practice reading stories before bedtime.
