A deeper prison

Another week, another adjustment.

We got scared of coming in every morning and seeing this:

We were terrified that Sam would figure out that a little lean and jump means freedom, and possible head owwies.

So we adjusted the bed, just as Ikea designed the crib.


Man, when I was putting that thing together, I busted my thumb with a hammer so many times I lost count and spent most of the night cursing Sweden and all things viking related.

But lowering the mattress wasn't that bad, just took about 15 minutes for the whole project. Next step: We take off the bars and Sam gets an actual bed. So that he can come into our room at 4 a.m. and demand to watch Barney.

We've adjusted our crib all the way down, but the boy can still reach his head high enough to peer over the top and chew the varnish off the rail (really).

Yeah, so far we've just got toothmarks on the toy box. And windowsill.

Good to know the boy's doing better after his throat trouble.

Before long he will figure out that he can kick his leg over and out he goes.

Sam is still the cutest baby in the world. Give him a kiss and a hug for me.
