Yesterday at our check-up, the pedi mentioned that when they kids can crawl in or out of their crib it's time to move them to a bed. I mentioned that they can climb into their crib, but they've never tried to climb out. We had one scare with Abby a few weeks back where she tried to climb out while I was in there, but nothing since. None of us is ready to move the twins to beds and that's just a battle I'm so not ready to deal with yet. So I told him we'd invest in crib tents.
Well, our little babies have such good listen skills I guess because this morning at 7:30 I hear Jake crying in his room. It wasn't an abnormal cry so I took my time checking the monitor. But when I flipped it on, he wasn't in his crib! I looked in all the corners, even flipped over to Abby's and checked her bed. Nothing. Where was Jake!?! I ran into his room expecting to find him crying on the floor, but he wasn't there either. It took a second but I finally spotted him wedged between his crib and Abby's. His head was the only thing holding him between the beds! I grabbed him out from between the beds and checked him over. I think he's just fine, although he'll probably have some bruises on his chest, but at least he didn't fall onto the floor. I brought both kids to our bed for some family time and told John it was time to by the crib tents. He would rather just move them to beds, but he's not the one who will have to deal with that move. I'm so not ready to do that and am planning on keeping them in cribs until they're 3! If we had extra room, I might consider putting them in beds if I could separate them. I'm thinking that might be easier, but who knows.
So this morning I ordered two crib tents. They should be here in a few days and we'll try to assemble them best we can. Hopefully the kids aren't terrified of them. I have a feeling they might be a bit claustrophobic. Hopefully not! Once we get them set up, I'll take a few pictures of the kids in kiddie jail!

Oh My Goodness! That would have scared me to death! Poor baby boy just got a little too curious. Let me know how the tents work out I imagine we will soon be there... Love ya!
