Too Early…

Published February 15, 2008 by Erin

About a week ago Ethan discovered that he can get out of his crib by himself. … Yes, he is almost 3 and yes, he is still in a crib. It’s just been easier to keep him in the crib since he’s never tried to get out even though he’s been able to get out, he never knew it… until recently. The first time he climbed out of his crib was one morning about 8:00am. I was doing my devotions before the boys woke up and I hear this creek from his door (all our doors creek when you open them… quite annoying). He comes toddling out with a big smile and says “I got out myself”. Oh yay. I could hardly contain my excitment… but I did actually laugh b/c it was so funny to me that he was so proud of himself. Well, every morning he wakes up a little earlier… this morning walking into our room at 6:30 “HI!” Luckily he’s pretty obiedient and I put him back in bed and said it was too early and he at least stayed in his room for another 30 mins. :) Nap time is getting a little more challenging too… today he comes out of his room after 45 mins… I knew he didn’t sleep… our conversation:

Me: Ethan, did you sleep?

Ethan: shaking his head with a sad look on his face he slowly says “no”

Me: can you try to sleep a little longer?

Ethan: a snack will feel me better

Haha… how do I deal with that cuteness? :)

Since blogs are sometimes boring without pictures here’s a picture of a few weeks ago when we had a family movie night. Complete with Ethan’s favorite snack, popcorn and Lucas’ favorite toy, the remote.

      Samuel has a new room!!  Well, it’s a shared room, but at least he has a corner now!

      I’m not sure our youngest, Samuel, is going to make it to his first birthday. I think our daughter is trying to get rid of him. I think she loves him, she talks to him and about him often. But she has also done things to make us think otherwise. When he is in his swing she likes to push it beyond what it was meant to go. She likes to poke his eyes. She threw his favorite pacifier into the garbage disposal (unknown to Erin until she ran it). She has picked him up and dropped him repeatedly (and tried to pick him up many other times). She has taken his blanket, covered his face with it and laid on him. She has put a marble, a pretzel, a piece of pizza, and other things into his mouth. I’m just not sure if Samuel is going to make it because his older sister is out to get him.

      This is Ethan’s way of saying this room is off limits for Alayna. Now every door in our house, even Alayna’s own room, has this sign. Even the outside doors. It’s Alayna’s catch 22 - can’t go in, can’t go out.

      We went to the Midwest Homeschool Convention in Cincinnati a couple weeks ago.  It was crowded!! Besides the fact that they scheduled the conference to begin at the exact same time as opening day for the Cincinnati Reds (~10,000 convention goers + ~40,000 baseball fans = no available parking + lots of frustration!) it was a nice trip.  Samuel enjoyed the big bed, Erin and I took the floor. ;)

      When your Daring Child is also your Clumsy Child that child will invariably be your Injury-Prone Child.
