Yesterday, I go in to check on Miss Squeaky, who should have been napping, and she had pulled herself to her knees, and had a big grin holding onto the bars of her crib. That's a cause for a bit of celebration, and a little bit of worry. Luckily, a few weeks ago we lowered her crib mattress, and so even while standing, her shoulders are below the top rail.
And continuing the celebration of accomplishment. Mr. Grunty has figured out how to turn on the "Jungle Sounds" toy, so, he can now watch that all night. He also has started moving around in his crib, so far just limited to 90 degree turns by morning.
A bit later in the day, I had put Miss S down for a nap. A few minutes later I heard a crash in the bed room. I was so scared she had fallen out of the crib. I saw her. She was on her back, leaning against the crib bars, with a "dude, what happened?" look on her face. No, she hadn't fallen out. Just back.
She doesn't have the muscles yet to crawl out. Though I'm sure that will be soon. My adrenaline levels were very high. I am so scared of my childrens taking a big fall.
And speaking of falling, let me tell you about what we saw happen today...
(I'll finish the story tomorrow.)
