Sleeping, toddler style

i don't want to be one of those parents, but they're chainsawing a huge tree down right outside of bobbys window (in the vacant lot) while he naps.  i mean, come on.

After a week sleeping on a big bed at the beach, we had serious troubles putting Bobby back in the crib.  So we didn't.  After climbing out of his crib 4-5 times the night before,  one night we just thew the mattress on the floor and he stayed on it.  This worked well for a few more nights, but now he wants to sleep in the big bed.  So we did that too.  Put him in the queen in the guest room, and he whimpers a bit, but stays there too. He does cry for mommy to lay down with him, but I don't want to get into that routine, so we've resisted so far.  I want to get him his own (twin) bed, but don't want all that furniture and bedding that go with it.

he still won't nap in either place, so we take a little walk in the stroller, then i walk the stroller into his room.  not ideal at all.

  1. single mattress, box spring or frame (or on the floor) single sheets and spread ... might as well pull the trigger as you say. you already have the dresser so just add a bed.
