Containment??

[Michele]

Daegan has now learned how to get out of his highchair...andhow to get Kai out of his. This morning. Russ' first morning (of 4 months) on an away rotation. Oh fun!

Uh oh!

I wish I could give you encouragement. I will say learn to laugh, don't get mad -- take pictures. Kenny climbs in and out of his playpen, he can get out of his crib but doesn't (yet), removes all child-proofing devices (door knob covers, baby gates, cabinet locks, etc.) and opens the refrigerator and dishwasher. If you don't learn to just laugh it off, you'll end up in tears.

Good luck with your little Houdini!

Re: Containment??

LOL. I feel your pain. Aaahhhh, the joy of them asserting their new skills and independence.

I did just laugh and roll with it. I don't know exactly how I'm going to work mornings now...hopefully they continue to sleep through my shower...but makeup is hard....I may end up applying at work. Daegan can open locked doors (from the wrong side) and unlock/lock doors....he climbs in and out of Kai's playpen and anywhere else he thinks he needs to be. I'm a little scared that Daegan was able to lift Kai out of his highchair. Kai was no worse for the wear...he was happy to be out running around. Silly boys....

He can LIFT his little brother out of the the high chair!?!? OMG.........

Duct Tape.

I was going to suggest the same. and in all seriousness, I have duplicates of all of my make-up and skin care stuff- one set here at home, one set at work and one set in the gym bag. It's just easier to deal with it at work than to attempt to get it all on before we walk out the door. (I walk the dude to school and then come home and walk the dogs and then go to work.) I moisturize and sunscreen here and that's it.

Don't laugh yet Laurie! Your turn is coming soon!

I have no advice. Hopefully this too will pass. But probably not.

Haha, I know it! And I'll have the duct tape ready! It comes in other colors now. Maybe I'll get some of the blue, so it matches his clothes...

Eddy hasn't sat in a high chair for years! But he did take the straps off of Natalie's so she's been standing and climbing out of hers for a while. :P He loves carrying her around too, I just have to keep reminding him not to hold her by the neck.

Re: Containment??

Sad to admit, but TV is my containment in the mornings. Both boys have been waking up at 5:30a and I have no hope of accomplishing anything before they wake up because they are my alarm clock! Breakfast and PBS Kids allow me to shower, feed the baby and get ready...

I do have to occasionally leave the shower to manage a "diagreement", but it works most of the time

Oh, the TV is definitely in employment. Unfortunately it's not enough of a distraction with breakfast to discourage wandering....

Newest escape? Carseat straps...and he "opened" the car door while we were on the highway. :egads!:
