Wondering how I am doing on my 101 Goals in 1001 days? I'm still truckin' along with them. I have actually completed 18 goals. Go me!
The last one I completed was:
43. Successfully transition Gage from my bed to his
This was a goal I was stressing about and wanted it done badly. Or so I thought. Gage has been out of my room and his own bed. It really wasn't that difficult of a task for him for the most part. He still wants me to come in there when he goes to bed but I tell him that mommy doesn't go to bed when Gage does. Other than that there is no battle. He doesn't usually(although there has been a few times) that he climbs down and starts playing with his toys or comes out to where I am in the house.
The difficult part of the task actually has been...me. I have no problem putting him to bed in his own room. I mean he went to bed in my room alone most of the time, anyway. The problem for me is when it is time for me to go to bed I have to fight with myself not to go in his room and curl up next to him. I have done it a few times. I don't know. I think nights are the hardest for me. Its my thinking time which usually leads me feelin' blue. I just want to be close(not like weirdo close) to the person I know who will always love me.
But I can cross it off my list because he isn't in my bed anymore!

There is something about cuddling with our kids that is comforting for us moms. It's not weird in my book.
I don't think it is weird either. And believe me, the day will come when you will cherish those cuddling moments more than you know.
Aww. Well good job following through. I understand missing him, I'd probably have to sneak in and cuddle, too!
I totally need to take off things that are never going to be accomplished and put things on there that I can accomplish. Anyhow, I when I put Babe to bed at night, it's not more than an hour later that I just want to scoop him up and snuggle with him. Sometimes I hope that he wakes up in the middle of the night just so that I can go rock him back to sleep.
Enjoy the moment now, they grow too quickly...
Congrats! They grow up fast. I totally remember my daughter at that age. She's applying for colleges right now...
Meg, when you are done your list can you help me with mine?? :o)
I so know what you mean! I loved co-sleeping and even now that my son is nearly 3, when my husband is out of town I have a hard time not crawling into my little guy's bed.
Congrats on the milestone and another checked box.
