Shad and the Carseat

He actually does own other pajamas, we apparently really like these ones!

Don't really think I need to say any more . . .

"C" is also for confession . . .

Okay, so the one time ever that it has or will happen I figure it should get some acknowledgment, Dan was right. Yes, you read that correctly, I admit my husband was right. About what you ask? Here is the story; When I first bought our crib Dan was not with me. It was a great once in a lifetime deal and he was working, so i picked it myself. Which, by the way, it is beautiful as you can see. So, I picked it myself and when I got it from my sister's I proudly put it all together so Dan could see it. His immediate reaction was, "That is way too low, he will be climbing out of it at like nine months!" At which point, I busted up laughing and told him babies usually can't even walk at nine months, I am sure they can't climb out of cribs. I felt fairly confident I knew what I was talking about, especially since my nephews and niece never have climbed out of their crib. (my niece is almost two and my sister hasn't even had to lower the crib). Unfortunately, I was wrong, oh so very wrong. I put Shad to bed last night and not too long later heard him giggling quite happily. I checked on the monitor to see what he was doing and saw he was climbing around in his crib, so I figured I better go check on him. What do I walk in to see? Shad standing in his crib with his arms all the way over the side, his head above the rail, leaning on his armpits and kind of hopping in place laughing and having a great time. His music player had the lights on, so he was playing with his shadow and thought it was great. Needless to say, I pulled him out of bed immediately and then proceeded to take the crib apart. Why had I not lowered it already you ask? Oh, I had. I had to actually take the mattress support out of the crib and put the mattress on the floor. Shad thought it was awesome having mom come in and play with him for nearly an hour and a half when he was suppose to be in bed and acted like it was the best night ever just crawling around and climbing up and down on things. He did seem pretty ready for bed close to the end though, fortunately I got the crib back together and finally got him back to bed. I think he might now be stuck for a few more months at least. Thankfully, just recently I had seen the mattress on the floor idea online, I didn't really anticipate needing to use it quite yet. Little bit creepy how Dan picked the exact age Shad would decide to start trying to escape, but I can admit he got it right.
