Nearly a week ago the girls were meant to be napping, and I heard a house-shaking thud followed by some rather unhappy noises. I went up to investigate and it turned out that Abigail had managed to climb out of her crib and fall head-first onto the floor. Good thing we chose some soft carpeting.
I proceeded to remove the sides from their cribs and put a lock on the door. They were thrilled! Most of the time things have worked out fine - the girls have just gone right to sleep or played for a bit and then slept. There were a couple incidents where it didn't go so well. I had to pull Amélie off of Abigail and we then turned her bed around so the open side was against the wall. Then it was fine.
It seems to be a bit too much freedom for Amélie, but Abigail is doing really well with it. We might just keep Amélie's bed closed for awhile longer...
We also changed their nap schedule. Instead of two per day they now take only one after an early lunch. So far so good. This way we are matched up with how they do things at daycare, but it does make things a lot more demanding for us.
We finally made a start with the baseboards. Hopefully the second floor will get finished up today. We also got a load of firewood (Meranti scraps from a window factory) and had to use some on Thursday because it was so cold. Now that we seem to have some nice weather coming our way we will have to enjoy some time outside too!
