For the past several days, when we get Marley from her crib after her naps, we find her crib covered in books. We had no idea how all these books were getting in there. I immediately come to the conclusion she now knows how to scale her crib and hop out to get stuff, walks down stairs and gets them from her playroom. This is a completely insane hypothetical. She has a stack of books on a little table next to her crib. We didn't know if she was reaching over her crib (it's on the lowest setting so that made me even more nervous - she's a dare devil and I can just imagine her falling on the floor) or how she was getting them in. I walked in her room yesterday and to my surprise, she did not hear me coming in like she normally does. So I stay really quiet and let her go about her business of snatching the books. That sneaky little baby reaches her hands through the slots on the side of her crib, and feeds the book up, switching hands as the book nears the top of the crib (think itsy bitsy spider hand motions)!! She giggles, puts the book down, and goes for the next one. She rarely cries in her crib anymore because she sits and reads books. I cannot believe how smart she is - it makes me a little scared of how adventurous she will be later in life. I don't know WHO she takes after....
I'm going to catch her doing it one day and I'll post a video/picture on here, but we're waiting for Geek Squad to fix it right now....
Isn't it crazy the things that they figure out at such a young age. See how good she is, soon she'll be sneaking out of the house quiet as a mouse... LOL
