One of my biggest pet peeves in life is when people ask your opinion, argue with you, and then do what they want anyway. Well, I asked your opinion. I'm not going to argue with you, but I'm largely ignoring most of you.
I found a used twin race car bed on Craigslist and I'm buying it and I went to Target yesterday. On a side note, do not go there during the after Christmas sale unless you want to be trampled. But, I found way cheap toys and bought them for all the up coming birthday parties we have. The one problem with my playgroup is that all the kids were born 6 weeks apart and I have 12 parties coming up that all need gifts.
Oh right, point, I bought these sheets.
So, we are doing it, we are changing the room. Ironically, Michael went to a friends yesterday because my daycare is closed this week and I needed to work. He napped, 2 hours, in a big bed. He was asleep when I went to pick him up. He didn't nap the entire time we were at my in-laws. I think he's ready.
I'm not ready, but since when has that stopped children from growing up.
Pot, meet Kettle

Those sheets are too cute!
And I know that you are nervous about the bed transition, but for us, it turned out to be much simpler than I ever imagined it would be. Here’s hoping that the same thing applies to you guys!

Oh, man, I feel like I missed out on the telling what you to do just to be later ignored. No matter, I did go read the original post to catch up on the whole discussion. I think it’s great that you are excited about it all. It is fun to plan, paint and redecorate a room.
With teens in the house, those Mom chooses the theme days are kind of long over…
Happy redecorating to you. Happy new bed to Michael!

He’ll do great – he’s ready and sometimes they can grow up faster for the greater good. That’s sort of my bottom line. If a kid wants to nurse or sleep with parents or do something that’s not really hurting him/her or the family vibe — great. Rock on. But if the child’s tiny vice or desire (like sleeping with dad or nursing into the night) start have such an adverse affect on mom/dad/family, then it’s good to push for change, despite the child not being 100% ready. Not meaning to be preachy but there you go, Pot, from a Kettle.

Seriously the bed transition was no big deal for my older son.
