Toddler Bed


Well, my little boy is no longer a baby and has officially proved that he can not be contained in a crib.  Here is proof that my child is a little monkey and can climb his way out or in anything.


See how easy that was, now watch me get back in the crib.


Once we witnessed this we got to work on making a toddler bed.  My husband did most of the work on the toddler bed and we made it to look like the Nume bed that I posted about before.  It turned out fantastic and Oakley loves it!  He climbs through at the opening on the end and curls up in it.



His sister thought she should try it out too.  Look mom, we both fit. 


We sized the bed to fit his crib mattress which worked out perfectly.  I think it is going to work great for him. Okay, now I think he's telling us he wants us to leave so he can go to sleep. Good night!

  2. What a great bed! I fear my little girl is soooo close to being able to do this. I need to start thinking about what kind of bed we want next.

    1. Unfortunately, I did not make DIY instructions for this project. I based it off the dimensions of a crib mattress.
