My baby's all grown up!!!

Well, it's official, my Sonny boy is grown. He finally pooped in the toilet...dropped the kid off at the pool, let the brown (green in this case) snake out of the hole, went #2, duce in the porcelin throne...you get the point.

It's not just that now he's pooping on the potty instead of in his underwear, or in some cases, on the floor in Carly's closet. He's out of his crib. (I'm holding back the tears). Last night was his first night in his big boy bed. I am so sad! There is just NOTHING sweeter than walking into a room with a precious child smiling from ear to ear with hair a mess, eyes puffy, waiting eagerly for mommy to scoop them up out of their bed. The days before he got into his big boy bed, when I'd walk in the room he would dive face first onto the other end of the bed. As he flew through the air he'd squeel with delight because he was so HAPPY to see mommy (I know that it was really because he was now going to be "rescued"). Anywho, I loved to listen to him on the monitor and he'd say,"momma, COME GET ME". I also would rock him to sleep and sing his favorite song...Skidamarinkedinke"juice" Yes, it's a weird version that he finds HILARIOUS?? Anywho, but that seems to have ended to. I am so sad. We did do a farwell to the crib and I took pictures and video of him saying "goodbye".

Also, another sign that my baby is grown...he didn't cry on Tuesday when I dropped him off for his 1st day at a NEW school. If you know my Sonnyboy, that's HUGE! And, there were NO tears all day! However, he did poop himself and tee tee all over himself, but it was a BIG day.

It's so funny, when I had Carly, I just wanted to get to the next thing and with Sonny, I hate it when we get to the "next thing" because it's one less thing that he needs his momma for... he's my love! I'm seriously crying, this is pathetic.

Oh Jamie! I loved this post. I was so like that too- always rushing to get to the next phase with my oldest. And I too am not like that with my youngest- I know its because he is our last. I want him to stay little longer and he just won't! :)
