Kaeleigh is quite the climber and at 16 months she can climb up the front of the oven and her high chair (standing triumphantly on the tray) but more recently she has discovered the art of crib escapes.
Mike and I heard banging coming from her room and then a loud thud followed by screaming. Kaeleigh had scaled the foot board (which is flat - it's attached to the changing table). Apparently she was stomping on top of the changing table and lost her balance ending up on the floor...she was fine. I on the other hand let out a long disgruntled groan at the realization that my life would officially be over now that she couldn't be safely contained.
Queue the sympathetic "uh huh" from moms around the world.
The next day I put Kaeleigh down for her morning nap, hoping she remembered her scarry fall. A short while later I went to check on Lil' Miss Houdini...
She was perched atop the changing table, talking to the birds out the window!
Oh Boy...I guess it's confirmed. The crib needs to be converted to the toddler bed and everything in the room will no longer be safe.
Now for the good news...
My best friend came to the rescue and brought me the "Crib Tent II" made by tots in mind.
Let me tell you, they deserve every penny for that wonderful idea!!
It's brilliant and I have my sanity back...for a short time anyway.
Thanks Karen you're the best :)
