Big boy bed update

Just an update on big boy bed...

He did start to get out and play with toys (and he still does) - so we usually check on him 5-10 mins after lights out to see if he's in bed or not. If he's not we have the talk - did mummy tell you to stay in your bed? Yes. Did you get out of bed? Yes. You disobeyed mummy so you need a smack. You need to do what mummy says. I usually give him the smack then out him back in bed, tell him to stay in bed and that we love him give him a kiss and shut the door. 

Some nights we don't have to do this, some nights we do. On the whole it doesn't happen a lot anymore.

The big boy bed transition really was not a drama at all.
