No more cribs :( {St. Louis Children's Photographer}

Today I go to put E down for his nap.  I was glad I would have some time to take a shower and get some stuff done.  Since I'll be heading out of town early Thursday I need to get clients there images, prepare for a talk I'm giving to some teenagers on Wednesday night with the Kirkwood Library, and get us ready for the trip.  

This is the day E decided to climb out of his crib.  About 3 minutes after I put him down he opens the door and walks right out.  Oh, the new sweet freedom!  SO, I had to take a very quick shower leaving Noah to babysit (yeah, right!).  The hair would just have to look bad until I got his room in order.  That was my new priority.  I had to run to the store and get a night light (since I could no longer leave a lamp in the room, he'd break) and a door knob with a lock (turned with the it locking from the hall, not his room).  He can open the baby locks for the knobs, so that was out.  

I brought the toddler bed up and changed the knob.  My plan was to leave the crib up until I had time to take it down.  E had other plans.  He climbed back into the bed, fell in I should say.  He landed on his face and flipped over to his back.  His neck wrenched back.  That freaked me out.  The bed had to come down right then.  It's in the basement now.  I had to take the changing table down and the pictures off the wall.  He is SUCH a climber!!!  I'm pretty sure all the Nemo stickers will be peeled off the wall, but we had a pretty good run with the crib with E.  The other two boys did not last as long in the crib, so I knew this day was coming but I wished it was not today.

Anyway, I did get my hair finished before I went to the Bobbi Brinkman workshop.  It was good!!  Bobbi is a great business woman and it was great of her to share the trade secrets with us.
