A Big Boy Bed

Jeff and I have been dreading putting Korver in a big boy bed.  Mostly because that would mean he could get in and out of bed at his leisure which we weren't sure we were ready for.  But when he took a nose dive out of his crib and got his foot caught in the slats, we decided it was time.
We had the bed from the bunk beds that the girls had in their shared room in our old house.  The bed is perfect since it has removable rails on both sides to keep him from falling out.  It used to be white and looked a little too "girly" for our liking so we spray painted it red to match the decor' he has in his room.
I picked his bedspread up at Target (gotta love that place) to complete the look.  We love the way it turned out and Korver does too.  We were really worried about him not staying in it at night, but we only had to get after him a few times and now he stays there all night long.
While it makes us a little sad that Korv is out of his crib and in a big boy bed, we know he loves it and that makes it worth it.
