Week 82: Tate's New Bed

Look out Walt Disney! Tate got a new bed and he couldn't be more thrilled. Though he never climbed out of his crib, Chuck and I felt it was time to take that monumental next step and move our little guy into a toddler bed. The toddler bed idea quickly snowballed into a playground where Tate can crash when he simply can't go anymore. By no means am I complaining. I think Chuck and I enjoy playing in Tate's room now almost as much as Tate does. It seems like every day this week we've come up with some sort of new game that revolves around the bed/slide/tent. We've spent a considerable amount of time watching Tate climb up the slide, slide down it, toss miscellaneous toys up or down the slide and hang out on surprisingly comfy loft mattress. It's great fun, but I'm being forced to realize how quickly my little boy is growing up! He is independent, not to mention hard-headed and absolutely fearless! Can you imagine what he's going to be like when he's a teenager?





Not only is Tate the primary player on the bed, he had a hand in assembling and testing it out as well.
