Now that Elias is 3 months old and the holidays are over, Nathan and I decided that it was time for Elias to move out…..to his own room.
He has been sleeping in a bassinet in our bedroom since we brought him home from the hospital. He has a very nice crib and mattress which are far away from Nate’s snoring…so we hoped he would get even better sleep in his own room. We were wondering if he would be bothered by the new sleeping space or the fact that he was not an arms reach from me.
Last night we put him down for sleep just as normal…except in the crib instead of the bassinet. He was really tired so he didn’t even open his eyes as we put him down. I have to admit I cried a little. It was very nerve wracking for me to let him sleep so far away. Plus our little boy is growing so fast! But I knew that it was the right time to move him.
Everything went great! Elias slept until 6:15 or so in the morning, then went back down after I fed him until 8:15 or so. He was as happy as ever when I went in to greet him in the morning. I love my little boy…and here is one more milestone to check off the list.
