We recently purchased a twin bed, nightstand, and dresser for Ethan's room. It won't arrive for another week or two. We decided on Saturday morning to take out the crib and put the twin mattress on the floor for Ethan to get used to sleeping on. We weren't too sure how he would react to having a "big boy bed" but it turned out he was very, very excited. In fact, once we got it set up he asked if he could go to sleep. We waited until his normal nap time and has done quite well for naps and bedtime on both Saturday and Sunday. We're still waiting to see how he will handle the freedom of not being caged sometime when he is put down but still wants to stay up.
