But along comes number 3. 17 months old and sleeping in his own little bed without a hitch. No tears. No banging. No escaping. No odd places. No testing the limits. Just sleeping. We even took the crib down early. He's so darn cute!

Smooth transitions.
Out of the three children, two are in their own big girl/big boy beds. The two oldest have moved out of the crib between 18-22 months. I realize this is earlier than some others move their children, but it works for us. The transitions have never been terribly hard, but we have put to use a baby gate for escapees. We've found them asleep randomly on the floor, in front of the door, or other odd places. There have been nights of crying and banging to get out. In the past, we've left the crib up for several weeks until the transition was complete. The crib has been used as a threat for any misbehavers.

Wow, I'm impressed! He's such a big boy!
We moved both our kids out of the crib before 2 yrs old and it was great!! i think life is easier when they can get out of bed in the morning and play with toys instead of just standing there screaming for you to come get them out!
