Climbing

Last night after I gave Heidi her bath (before bedtime), I told her to go into her room and pick two books while I pick-up in the bathroom. That is our usual routine. We usually pick two books to read every night at bedtime. I saw her walk into her room, so I thought she might go get some books out... so I went on with my picking up in the bathroom....

Well, a couple of minutes later (after I had finished picking up the bathroom), I walked into Heidi's room and saw her sitting on top of her changing table! There are 3 drawers & she had pulled out the middle drawer and used it to climb up to sit on the top of the changing table. Then, I guess she opened the top drawer and pulled the baby powder (which we rarely use) out and had started putting it on herself. I was shocked to find her there... it was the first time she had gotten up there by herself. She was laughing when I walked in. I think she was pretty proud of her accomplishment.

When Brian gets home, we need to lower her crib all of the way down too... or maybe just go ahead and make it into a toddler bed. It's down pretty low now, but she tries to get out and I have found her up on the side rail... and have to put her back into the crib... so it's kind of dangerous right now. I don't think I can lower it though. I would be afraid I would ruin it somehow.... and Brian made it, so I don't want to chance that happening.
