Movin' On Up

Jonathan finally outgrew his Little Tikes Roadster toddler bed. Bryan and I had been in discussions about whether to buy a new bed or just a frame or whatnot when my mother came to visit and suggested that we just cut the legs off the full-sized bed that was already in his room. Bryan busted out the saw and, voila, a "new" bed.

Jonathan and I immediately set to work finding new bedding. His initial suggestion was Spongebob. I know, shocking. I immediately nixed that idea and offered up my first pick, pirates. We eventually reached a compromise and chose this set.

I ordered everything this weekend and, thanks to Target and their super fast (and may I add FREE) shipping, it arrived today. Jonathan is thrilled with the new bedding and I am happy that it is not a licensed character. Life is all about compromise, right?

Why does he look like he's taking a poo rather than the pretend sleeping as I requested?



Oddly, this is much how I sleep at night. Seriously. I wonder if this sort of thing can be inherited?

2nd picture = Jennifer sleeping EVERY night. No doubt genetics pushed that trait right to the top of the batch. JBF

Super cute "sleeping" shot and love the space-y set. Congrats on dodging the character sets. My kids watch Spongebob incessantly but I'll be danged if I'll use him in bedroom decor! :)
