That's not Mary Joyce's bed!!!
Mary Joyce has learned how to climb into Katherine's crib--not good. Last night, she climbed in while Katherine was in there. We ended up putting Katherine back down to sleep in the Pack & Play until Mary Joyce fell asleep, and then moved her back to her bed. Tonight, we used that method again, but we think for our sanity and for the safety of both girls, we are going to have to put the side back on Mary Joyce's crib for awhile. The girls have to share a room. We are living in a 2 bedroom parsonage, so we really don't have another alternative. The room we are using as our home office is a converted porch, which has a door with outdoor access and no closet--not a good bedroom for a baby or a toddler, and too small for a master bedroom. I feel like we're moving backwards, but there is a safety issue involved here. We think moving her back to a crib will work because she can climb in, but can't climb out. I think she is using the platform and mattress as steps to climb up, and she doesn't have those footholds to use to get out. We'll see if it works. When they both get a little older, we'll go back to the toddler bed. Ah...parenthood...

OH MY! That is definitely scary and I think you are doing the right thing by putting her railing back up for right now....at least for your piece of mind and good nights sleep! ;)
We caught Jon Milledge throwing toys into Anderson's bed while Anderson was it....not good! He told us that Anderson wanted to play with them...he was 2 months old and not quite ready for a Tonka Truck!
OOOPS! I meant your PEACE of mind!
