Kayla is getting ahead…ache.

We had read that Kayla will soon be climbing on things (which she’s mastered) and attempting to scale her crib walls. This normally happens at about this time, but she is 4 inches shy of the “36 inches required for a successful crib escape.” We had her mattress in the lowest setting, and assumed we needn’t worry yet. After all, it’s only her head that is significantly larger than normal.706

We are not exactly certain how she managed it but after hearing the cry, mommy returned to find her standing beside the crib, a bit distraught. Did she scale the crib walls? Did she use her head as a counterweight? There were no bumps or bruises. That was Wednesday. Figuring that she almost certainly has climbing in her blood, the only sensible thing to do was move her mattress to the floor. Today we picked up her new toddler bed which she thinks is quite dandy.

  1. Being a person with a big head as a girl (second largest in high school graduation) you are not doing your daughter any favors by continuing to embarrass her and continually remarking about her large head (believe me, she will be totally embarassed and ticked off at you all if she ever reads your blog about her large head)!! While it seems funny to you it won’t to her!! My 3 adult children even know I have a “big heed” since they watched the movie “So I Married an Axe Murderer” with Mike Myers and Nancy Travis!! Plus our daughter was also born with the “big heed” (she’s 37 now) and loves the Mike Myers movie but hates it when anyone mentions her head today!!

  2. Almost two months without a post??? Are you guys still alive? Oh, but wait, you had time to hack into my blog and post there, but no time to post on your own? How’re my niece and nephew doing? What is Luke getting into? Kayla? Nosy siblings want to know!
