Took a picture today of (what I hope to be) Sam’s last sleepy time in his crib.
We’ve been talking about his BBB for a long time, and after patiently waiting for deliveries and set-up snafus, we now finally have a BED.
We put up a rail at bedtime, but he was very concerned about falling out of the top of the bed. The crib** is still in there, and he wanted that thing gone. “just put it in the living room, mommy.” Also: “if I fall outta bed, I just get back in.”
Ryan proclaimed Sam’s bed to be BEAUTIFUL, and wanted to hang out in there to play.
Here’s hoping for a quiet night with lots of sleep!
**We have a drop-side crib. Which are now apparently illegal to manufacture, sell, re-sell, or donate. Anyone know what we’re supposed to DO with it? Throwing it away seems such a waste, as it’s a perfectly good crib. We never even used the drop-side, just bought the crib because we liked how it looked.

Did you have a tear in your eye? I did.
i thought the companies had conversion kits for those and then you’d be able to donate it?
You can get a conversion kit or Babies R Us does their exchange event where you bring in items like this & get 25% off. Not sure the specs on what type of purchase is eligible. I’ve also heard Target takes in cribs & gives you a gift card. I’d think a phone call to these stores would answer your question.
