If anyone does read my blog (and it still makes my eyes widen when I realize that people do!) they have got to be rolling their eyes as I keep rhapsodizing over the bed thing. KC slept all.night.long. In his own bed, and awoke with a smile on his face.
Why do I keep going on and on? It really isn't because nothing else has happened in my life! It is more because co-sleeping is not the norm in our society. And even among friends who co-slept, their kids were in their own beds long before KC decided he was ready to make the transition.
Also although my wife initially supported co-sleeping--and I think at some level still does--she also believes in moving things along with our children if they are not moving quickly enough according to her internal time line. I am way more laid back about things like who sleeps where, and how they get to their bed. I have had to listen to people tell me this journey was "unnatural." That I was not "parenting" That I would never get my children out of my bed. Well, let's just say it was awkward and hurtful to listen to the various comments. So I am simply basking in happiness now. Just basking! LOL

YAY For KC. That is a huge step.
Congrats. The most important thing is that you are both happy.
This is cool. We cosleep too. . .our 2 1/2 year old is no where close to leaving our bed, though.
