Near Heart Attack

Well, my paranoia about keeping the crib rail up whenever Caiden is in it finally became realized. (Ug, I hate sharing these kinds of stories because I feel like it makes me look so negligent!) Anyway, I went in to visit Caiden after his morning nap. He wasn't quite ready to be picked up just yet as he was having far more fun rolling around on his mattress. :) So I put down the crib rail and sat down in the glider to watch him play and wait for him to be ready to get out.

Of course it wasn't long before he was standing against the railing. He was leaning up against it and grinning at me from behind his pacifier. Well, he kept leaning further and further and almost before I knew it, he was on his way to going head over heels out of the crib! Lucky for both of us, I saw it coming and was able to grab him before he completely fell out. WHEW! Still, my heart nearly stopped for a moment there.

At least now I know that my insistence over ensuring the crib rail is up when he is in there unsupervised is not due to sheer paranoia!!
