Big Boy bed

We have finally taken the railing off of Dakota's bed. He now has a big boy bed and could care less one way or the other. I don't think he understands that he can get out on his own, which we are not complaning about at all, it's just funny. We will hear him call to us in the morning, asking to be taken out of bed. We have to tell him that he can get up on his own. Which I guess is a good thing, then he isn't getting up with out us knowing about it. It also works good for time outs too. He has more of the responsibily about getting up on his bed and staying there until one of us goes and talks to him. Anyways. I can't believe how grown up he is getting. Time does go by so fast. We are very proud of our little man
