Accomplished Crib Climber

A few months ago, Evan fell out of his crib and hit the floor hard! He didn't attempt that again for quite a while. Quite a while is over. He now can get in and out of his crib with speed and accuracy. Last night for about an hour, he did the old "keep getting out of the crib no matter how many times they put me back in." He was so proud of himself (so was I!). John finally laid down the law (very stern voice--meany), Evan cried for a minute, but, he stayed put in his crib!
It's hard sometimes for me to be strict in situations like this; it's nice to see him accomplishing something! Yes, he's way overdue for the transition from crib to toddler bed --this weekend. I think we may need to pull out the instructions on how to change the crib to a bed.
