Carl and I just put our bed (mattress and boxspring) on the floor. In the corner, so that when we do bring Noah into bed with us in the morning (as we have been at about 5 most mornings) he can be put between one of us and the wall, or between us, at will.
And we put a little stool at one end so he can climb up (he can climb down fine, and it’s not toooo high for falling).
I cannot believe this because I swore up and down that no baby would stay in my room for longer than 6 months. And now we’ve essentially set it up so that Noah can come and go once he pleases.
All this is because he’s juuuust about figured out how to get out of his crib, at which point we’ll probably take the rail off and let him at it (in our closed, relatively child-proofed room).
P.S. Lyria is glad I’m finally getting a clue. It’s funny how all the astral parents cosleep at least part of the time.
The hippo who doesn’t want to eat his carrots… hmmm. I sense a possible kid’s book here!
