Big Girl Bed???

Today was a first for Kennedy... the first time she CLIMBED OUT OF HER CRIB!!! *gasp*

She was supposed to be napping, but decided that reading/singing/talking to her animals was more important. It was pretty cute, I must say. But I still went in a few times to tell her that she needed to sleep. She didn't agree. So I thought to myself, if she's having fun, why bother?! Soon after that I hear, 'Creeeeeeeeeek'. I thought, did Riley just open the door? I started walking toward her room to find out what was up, when I see two little eyes peering through the crack. She quickly closed the door. I look in and to my amazement, find her "Lion" on the floor, set perfectly next to her crib. That wasn't there when I put her down! Apparently she moved it to a location that would be of better use to her! (All while sitting in her crib.) I asked her why she wanted to get out and she said, "I wanna potty train.". REALLY?! So I got her on the potty. She didn't pee, but I appreciated her interest!

Yes, our daughter is 2 1/2 and still sleeping in a crib. I didn't want to move her to a bed if it wasn't necessary. I made the decision that I wouldn't move her unless she started crawling out of her crib, potentially proposing a danger to herself. So do I wait another day to see if she tries it again? Of course I'll make sure there is nothing in arms length for her to grab tonight. I guess we'll see what happens in the morning! Stay tuned.
