Big Boy Boat Bed

I was told a trick by my older sister on how to keep your toddler in bed (my sisters are geniuses!) So naturally when Jett turned one in a half I gave it a try! It worked.....For one whole year Kyler and I have enjoyed tucking him in for "night night" and not seeing that shining face of his until the following morning. Each night before bed Jett would pick a new "treasure" to sleep with....a rock, child size plastic rake, piece of paper, all of his toy cars...:) Really anything that wasn't soft to snuggle with. It was always  the highlight of our lives day to see what he going to bring to bed with him! 

Then a few weeks ago he got out of his bed (I was so very surprised!!)  Made his way down our stair and climbed into our bed!

Suddenly he can't fall asleep unless I am right beside him......So I lay there until he drifts off to dream land...and I wonder what he is dreaming about....I sneak off to my own bed and I always, always (as of late) end up waking up with him again....Then Kyler will bring Miss Wynnie up to that boat bed of his {ours} and all three of us will sleep. Wynnie is always awake before 6:30 singing her little heart out! I lay there trying to remember what it used to be like before I had my very own real life alarm clock...

 Honestly, if I can be truthful.....I am kinda in loving it! After all he will only be two half for a bit longer.....it is always nice to feel needed. Always.

So on to the details of the Misters room..

We purchased his boat bed off KSL classifieds. Its previous owners were two husky teenage boys, who were more than happy to get it off their hands..HA HA 

The map is a wallpaper decal from pottery barn and the rugs and bed spread were purchased at Target. That store is just full of fun stuff!

The color scheme of Jetts big boy room was inspired by the color plate of an oatmeal canister...I only wish I was kidding :)

Thanks for looking! Have a happy Friday!

Just for fun this is what Jetts room looked like when we moved in!!
