Carter's Big Boy Bed

We actually made the final step from toddler bed to full-sized bed last night. It was long overdue, so we finally "bit the bullet", bought a full-sized mattress and converted his crib/toddler bed into the real deal. He's been talking about getting his big bed all week, so he was thrilled to help daddy put it together last night.

We deliberated on letting Carter pick out everything for his new bed, but after seeing the massive version of Lightening McQueen & Mater on the bedspread, we compromised...Carter picked out the Lightening McQueen sheets and Mommy & Daddy picked out the plain 'ole bedspread.

As expected, Carter doesn't need any help getting up there..."I can do it myself."


The entourage of animals made the transition as well...


I stuck out my tongue to try to make him smile...this is what I got in return...


The Little Einsteins also like the new bed.


Night, night! (It was actually dark in his room at this point, that flash works wonders!)
