On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the best day ever, and 10 being my worst nightmare -- today would fall at about a 10. Last week, Leo learned how to turn doorknobs. I was filled with dread, but nothing came of it. A few days past but the only knob he's turned was to the hallway closet, I could totally live with that.
Today, I put Leo down for a nap, I hop in the shower, Leonard is going to be home soon and I need to be ready. I hear a rustle, and assume Leonard's gotten home earlier than I expected.
Next thing I know, Leo runs up to the shower door and says, "No night-night today". I wait, still expecting Leonard to come walking up. I wait. I wait. I call out. Clarity. Leonard has climbed out of his crib. Leonard has opened his bedroom door. Leonard has opened my bedroom door. Panic.
I am dreading tomorrow. I hope the decision to skip his nap was a fluke. Worst still, I worry I won't be able to keep him in his crib anymore. I'm not ready for a big boy bed.
NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Ah, independence. Is there anything scarier? Poor Lizzie. Good luck in the new and frightening world of full mobility.
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I'm so scared for that day. Good luck, and tell me what to do when you figure it all out. :)
I dunno....the whole post made me laugh my head off. Ah...the joys of motherhood!
It is horrible the day they figure out how to get out of their crib, and turn knobs! Yikes! Good luck! :)
Haha! Leonard is so big now. He's a big boy!
