Bye, bye baby

In the last two weeks Macadam has said so long to two of the most quintessential elements of life as a baby - diapers and his crib. Two weekends ago marked his entry into diaper free life and last weekend he started sleeping in his big, twin bed. Here are a few shots of him running around in his underwear and trying out the potty. I can't wait to sneak some shots of him sleeping in his bed because it's oh so sweet and rather unbelievable how quickly he's growing up. For now, these were post-nap.

Last weekend was rather tiring since we didn't get to leave the house in an effort to focus on the training but we did have a lot of fun clapping, cheering for making it to the bathroom in time and running laps in the hallway to keep from cabin fever. He's been asking for weeks, if not months, about when his big bed will be here and we finally got all the pieces needed to make it happen last Friday. Plus, it's even nicer that he can get out of bed by himself when nature calls.

We're hoping to go easy on the little man with big changes and transitions in the next couple of months so he'll be a champ at all of the above before his new sibling arrives in June.
