When I say "baby," I mean Jeremy's pink satin blanket. Uncle Chuck is going to make a trundle for Jeremy. We just got the trundle mattress and decided to try moving Jeremy into Riley's room tonight. At first, all was going GREAT! Jeremy was so excited!!! Riley was being such an example! We did our bedtime routine, and Jeremy climed under the covers. I made it like Riley's with the top sheet and a quilt. Jeremy excitedly climbed under the covers. I handed him baby. He held baby for a little bit. Then all of the sudden, he so unceremoniously threw baby across the room. As far as he was concerned, at the moment, he didn't need that old thing anyway. He is a big boy, sleeping in a big bed, afterall. Valane and I laid down with the boys for a couple of minutes while Valane told them a story about when he was a kid. Then Jeremy said, "You guys, Go Away!" So we shut the door on our way out.
Sweet success? No. Within 10 minutes, we hear Jeremy goofing around. Riley stayed in his bed and tried to do the right thing, Jeremy was too excited to sleep. The night ended, after several tries, with Jeremy in his crib. He was devistated. And yes, at that point, he had baby again. I can't say I"m surprised, but hopefully tomorrow goes better! Hopefully he willingly gives baby up without a fight. Not that I mind too much. I just don't want him carrying around a pink satin blanket for too much longer.

Ah yes, the bed transition. Not fun. The first night Cole was in a big boy bed I think I got three hours of sleep. Good luck!!
