The Funny Inevitable

Well, Ryan suprised us this morning - by coming into our room! Two days ago, when he got up from a nap, I heard some loud sounds coming from his room. I assumed it was just him throwing books out to get our attention. But when I went in I saw that one side of the bed rail on his crib wasn't up. At first I assumed I hadn't latched it correctly. Later, Ryan put the side up from the outside of the crib, so I put him in the crib and watched him move the rail up and down until a side came down. So I haven't been letting him stay in the crib for more than a few minutes after he woke up. Well, this morning, we heard him in his room talking loudly and moving the rail again. We waited just a few minutes and his door opened (yes, he learned to open doors too) and in he came - proud as can be!! So now we are either off to the store to buy a bed rail for his big boy bed or off to a friend of Kris's who was going to give us one. We had really been hoping to wait until after Christmas, but it doesn't look like he's going to wait that long.

Last week, he also figured out the gates, if he tries hard enough. We tightened them, so he can't get them now, but once he figures out to move them upward just like the crib - we will be in trouble! Luckily, we just have to finish the office and we'll take them down.
