A Room of His Own

When Nathan hit the four month mark we made the transition from pack 'n play in the bedroom to his crib in his own room. We anticipated the same move for Benny. And even though I knew it was coming and knew it would be ok, I still approached the time with reluctance. Those four months flew by. And now he's in his own room? The newborn days are behind us for good. I was sad about it but also a little happy. And even proud. With Nathan we couldn't put him down without him crying the second he realized the warm arms had vanished. Benny, on the other hand, is a heavy sleeper. When he's out, he's out. I set him down after the last feeding, around 10:30p or so and he's good until 7a. This feels good. Not that I don't worry about him in there all by himself. I imagine the worst. But this morning when I peeked in he was turned 45 degrees and completely out of his blanket sucking his thumb. ~Sigh~ He's so stinkin' cute. And I feel great today. The move to his own room was a good one.
