UH-OH!

UH-OH. In the mornings, Emma has always stayed in her room, in her bed. Just a few weeks ago, she started calling my name. I used to just go up and get her when I heard her rustling around for awhile through the monitor. Now the monitor may be ready to be retired. SHE CAME DOWN THE STEPS. Yup, she woke up, got out of bed, opened her door, shut the door behind her, and came down the steps! Chucky was about to tell her that was a no-no when I told her good job! I thought it was great - hey, one less step for me, especially when the baby is born and I don't want to or can't climb steps 5 times a day. Chucky stopped short so as not to confuse her (what a good dad) and later told me we were in big trouble because she was going to do that not just in the mornings, but in the evenings, too - when she is supposed to be sleeping. UH-OH. She will scare the tar out of me if I am relaxed in the chair watching TV one night and she appears in the room. Aaaaggghhhh! No, I really hope she doesn't try the slippery wood steps in the dark. Ugh.
