This morning was Asher's first official day in the Toddler Room! All last week, they were transitioning him by having him spend a few hours in the morning in his new room. The skills that you have to master before being able to move up are the following - you have to be able to sit at the table rather than in a high chair, drink out of a sippy cup instead of a bottle, keep up with the other kids who are walking and take a nap on a cot and not in a crib. I am happy to announce that Asher is now a pro at each of these tasks!
He knows most of the kids in his new room as they were his friends in the Infant Room before each moving up individually. He did a great job this morning going into the new room without any tears. All he wanted to do, actually, was show me all of the cool new toys that he would get to play with now that he is a big boy! When I picked him up, they said that he had a great day and wasn't really sad at all throughout the day - score!!!
Asher knew it was going to be a busy first day so he was banking all the sleep that he could before it was time to kick it into gear and get ready for a Monday. Riley, on the other hand, was ready and raring to go and was just waiting patiently for Asher to wake up and start the day with him! Sitting next to the crib and waiting for his brother to wake up is one of Riley's favorite activities. I am just glad that he does it to Asher instead of to me!

This is a weird activity for Riley to choose but I guess it's better than the other options. Way to go, Asher, such a big boy!!!
