Adventures in Parenting

[gnomi]

Last night, mabfan and I learned that Squeaker can climb out of her crib, even with the side all the way up (we knew she could climb out with the side down; she's been doing that for a while).

Neither one of us was anywhere near the girls' room when I heard their door open. Squeaker came out into the hallway looking for Daddy. Eventually we got her back into her bed, but then she climbed out again and closed her bedroom door (we keep the door open the tiniest bit in case we have to go in when one of the girls is sleeping and the other is not). She and Muffin were playing "Muffin takes things out of her crib and hands them to Squeaker, who puts them back into the crib," which, while fun, was not the point of going to bed.

Ah, the joys of having two-and-a-half-year-olds.

Sounds like somebody is ready for a big-girl-bed :-)

(which is right about on schedule, I would say)

If you are not ready for big girl beds, there are always crib tents. Or duct tape. See if you can guess which one is endorsed in your sister's house...

My two-and-a-half-year-old just /broke/ her crib. I am unamused. Big bed time is a-coming, but it's going to be a nightmare to get her to stay in it.
