Oh Parker, You Need Your Own Bed

During the last few nights, it has become apparent to me that Parker needs to start sleeping in his own bed at night.  He has been overly fussy due to excessive heat and being crowded, and this has caused him to cry out every 20 - 30 min and push me or his daddy away to have more space.  This is very exciting to me, but now I'm faced with having no choice but to get him in his crib.  Again, very exciting, but I don't know how I will manage this!  He still seems resistant to being put down alone in a crib.  I think this is where a drop-side crib would come in handy, but we don't feel safe using those due to way too many recalls.  I sure do wish all babies came with a manual some days!  Wish us luck.
