Anthony has impressed all with his new ability to walk, which he followed with the ability to climb (more irksome than impressive). Still, being quite short, the second new found gift didn't have us too worried. How foolish we mortals be...
Anthony wakes us every morning by going to the side of the crib that the monitor is on and saying "HI, hi hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii hi" over and over agian til someone wanders in and scoops him up. It's quite cute. However, yesterday, he decided to change his MO, honestly I think to make sure we could both have simultaneous heartattacks. We heard one "HI" on the monitor, followed by a loud THUD. This thud was followed by screaming, as we flew out of bed and into his bedroom. There was Anthony, next to his crib on the floor, looking quite shocked and scared at a trick he apparently didn't know he could do, or the ramifications.
He's got a small bruise on his forhead, but mainly a bruised ego. Scared the PISS out of us, though. Enter childproofing frenzy by mommy. Since he's sleep's so erratic, I don't trust him in a real bed yet, I put a 'landing pad' on the side of his crib (it's against the wall on the other side), made of a large fluffy comforter, and re-kid-proofed his room. Rick is adamant about not moving the shelf with his collectables that's in there (grrrrr), which is just ASKING for trouble. Well, I suppose he'll learn when Anthony gets out of his crib and uses his Peyton Manning figures as chew toys. I'm worried about the bookshelf though. We don't have it secured to the wall, and Anthony could pull it over. I'm going to have to put my foot down on that one.
