Transitioning from Crib to Bed
Big Boy Bed
We got Wyatt a big boy bed when he was two and a half. He wasn’t showing any signs of climbing out of his crib and he was perfectly comfortable in there, we hadn’t potty trained yet so he didn’t need to get out for any reason, but we needed his crib for baby Reese.
I spent a lot of time deciding on what kind of bed I wanted for his room. I decided to skip a toddler bed, we wouldn’t get that much time out of it so it seemed like a waste of…

A Morning At The Zoo
Now that Massachusetts is starting to open back up, I’ve been jumping at any safe activity I can do with my kids that’s outside of our own backyard. We took Wyatt and Reese to Franklin Park Zoo in Boston this week & it was so great to have a change of scenery in a way we felt comfortable with: outdoors, distance, masks & plenty of sanitation.
Both Zoo New England locations, the Franklin Park Zoo & Stone Zoo reopened to the general public this month with new protocols…
