Almost Time...

I've caught lil man a couple of times now with his leg trying to go over the crib. He is so close to being able to get himself out of it. I've been told that when they can crawl out of their crib, that's when it's time to move on up to a big boy bed! I can understand the reasoning behind this. Jacob can turn around and slide off of a bed easily, but I can see a trip to the ER if he's trying to climb out of a crib! Ultimately, I'm hoping this doesn't have to happen until this summer. I want him to be as close to 2 as possible, but I have been daydreaming a little bit about his big boy room. To us, a toddler bed seems like a waist of money, so we are going to a full size bed with the rails on the side. We already have the furniture, which is very lightly stained.

Pottery Barn is by far my favorite place to get kids bedding. I have looked what seems like everywhere, but haven't found anything that I like near as well. I also really like the quilted bedding. I did find some on Overstock, but still, it wasn't near as cute.

The first room I fell in love with:

I loved how all the little car sheets and train sheets went with this. You weren't stuck with any certain theme (which one thing I have learned with looking at big boy bedding is if it doesn't have some sort of theme, it's not cute). Then, I got to looking at the prices of their sheets, and decided to change my mind real fast! :) And since the sheets were really what I liked, and I haven't been able to find any more that really go with it as well, I decided this wasn't really what I wanted.

Then, this became an obsession:

We actually really liked this one. We even thought of doing a train track going around the ceiling. :) We saw the idea of it when we went to Gatlinburg, and the first thing we thought about was Jacob. I know he would love it. But, would Mama really love cleaning it? It's still an option, I guess.

I never really loved this one, but anyone who knows me knows I love red! So, I thought for that reason alone, this one was cute:

If Wayne were a fireman, this would definitely be the perfect choice. But he's not, and it just doesn't seem to fit, no matter how red it is! :)

Now, this is currently my fav:

I love the khaki and navy! And I love the elephants! Being a Tide family, we wouldn't have a hard time at all finding little elephants for the room! :)

So, this is what was on my mind for today...and a lot of days! I guess we'll just have to see what we decide on this summer. Speaking of summer...I'm not wanting to wish time away, but I'm definitely ready for some warmer weather!!
