What's the Rush?!?

Mike wanted Riley to start solids at 2mo old so this kind of thing is nothing new. He insisted at 9mo she "needed" her own Legos. I went with it and got her the baby version. He's been pushing to give her a computer, but I keep saying it's too early (and a space issue, but isn't everything in this house). This weekend he insisted she was ready for a bed. He was ready to disasemble the crib and throw a mattress on the floor for her.

I must stop typing and breathe deeply.

I explained all the reasons why with her sleep issues right now it's a terrible plan. As I suspected it's what he did the first time around. I told him that made sense as Isaac never slept with him. He slept well in the crib and probably transitioned easily to a bed. I know if I were a single parent with a good sleeper I'd probably opt for the plan that bought me a little more sleep in the morning. Riley however is another story she would never sleep if she had the choice right now. Plus Mommy is not ready for her only baby to have a big girl bed.

So, reigh in those horses, Daddy. We'll get there soon enough.
