Changes - Big Boy Bed

We discovered while in Carslbad that Ry no longer could sleep in his pack and play.  After a few days/nights of driving around for naps and bedtime we decided to invest in a KidCo tent (thanks to a good friend for the recomendation.) It was a lifesaver as we didn't know what else to do.....he wouldn't lie down with us, wouldn't stay in the pack and play and was into everything if we held the door closed.  This tent has a big air mattress and was perfect....it will be joining us in MN at the end of August for sure!  We got home Saturday night and before I could close Ry's door he was out of his crib and behind me, telling me, "I get out, I out!"  And so it began.....
He has made HUGE progress since then, is sleeping in a queen size bed with railings and is doing amazing for such a short time.  We did have to remove EVERYTHING except the bed!!!  We are hoping that by the weekend we can introduce a dresser and slowly get furniture back in there.  Here are some pictures as we painted his new room before vacation knowing I had time over the summer (little did we know he would be in it so soon.......) We are decorating it with space/planets as Eric's mom framed two drawings he did as a kid of rockets that are perfect and so much fun!  Ry calls it his star room and was very excited when we hung his planet mobile; the one decoration he has as he can't dismantle it!  HA!!!!!!
