Big boy's bed

DSC01741

Yesterday Hayley took the kids out for the afternoon to give me time to re-arrange Oliver's room and build his single bed. His "big boy's bed". (Not to mention picking up the mattress. It just fits into a Zafira over the top of the seats in case anyone should want to know for future reference.)

We recorded the moment he first saw it. His response was less to his bed and more to the Wall-E toy I had secretly ordered for him to go with the duvet cover and pillow case that he had picked out a couple of weeks ago.

He took a while to settle down to sleep, not surprising really! But then we didn't hear a peep out of him until it was time to get up. Success!

Another milestone. Hayley said she felt a bit sad. I have to say that didn't hit me this time. I guess I was just too excited!
