All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

I'm pretty sure a couple or three good solid headbumps are required for proper human growth and development. Else wouldn't we all have died out long ago to be replaced by some more graceful species?

she's in a bed already?!
I caught her perched on the rail of her crib a few weeks ago, and the fall to the floor from a toddler bed is not as far as from the top rail of the crib. So it was either switch the sleeping arrangement, or convince her to wear her bicycle helmet to bed.

Because books.
Oh, a toddler bed! I forgot about those.
Yeah, climbing out of the crib is only for Xtreme Toddlers.

I think I've told this story here, but my niece, starting at 18 months, would climb up the doors in their house using the molding at the sides to shimmy all the way to the top, where she would hang until rescued. She would do this at 3 a.m., sometimes.

This was how HKF earned her toddler bed badge too. Exactly. Also a slot in the local gymnastics class after I came to pick her up at school and saw her standing on one foot on top of the top bar of the very rickety metal climber on the playground.

Giving your parents heart attacks is always more fun at 3 am.
Perhaps you could put something on the floor to pad it for the next time she falls (or leaps) out of bed?

Actually, my double thick yoga mat was there. I have lived with her for two years, and I know what she's capable of...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You poor non-sleepers!

Holy crap.

'Suela - your coworker is insane. I can't believe she pretends to talk in her sleep or that she so obviously eavesdropped on your conversation with your new boss.
