The pitter-patter of little feet

We are in for it now... two out of the three little ones are climbing out of their cribs! Ryan started climbing out a few days ago and now Megan is climbing out. I am not ready for them to be in big beds. Not because I don't want them to grow up, but because I don't want to deal with the craziness that will go along with the move from cribs to beds! I've already had to remove Ryan from their room at naptime due to too much goofing around. Tonight I was talking to my sister-in-law on the phone and I hear the pitter-patter of little feet upstairs. That only means one thing - T-R-O-U-B-L-E! I go up to their room and the door is open, the light is on, Megan is running around in circles, Ryan is out of his crib, completely naked (no clothes, no diaper) and he's IN Dylan's crib! The kicker was that Dylan was dead asleep! We had been gone all day so the kids didn't nap and poor Dylan was exhausted. Ryan was jumping up and down in Dylan's crib, but Dylan was zonked out. I have to admit, I started laughing out loud! It was a hilarious scene to walk in on. Of course the two additional times I had to go upstairs to put Megan and Ryan back in their cribs wasn't so hilarious! After about an hour and a half, they finally gave up and fell asleep. I have a feeling the next few weeks are going to be interesting around here! Stay tuned ...
