Jailbreak!

Last night, Reagan did not want to go to sleep. Jim put her in bed about 9:00 pm and at 9:45 pm she was still very restless and gabby. So Jim went upstairs to "calm her down" and she was up with the lights on peeling all her Dora stickers off the wall. Whoops. That's the second time she's done that.

So he put her back in bed and we went downstairs to the basement. A few minutes later, I heard this loud thump and some other clatter from the upstairs. I asked Jim "do you really think we could hear her all the was in the basement?" He nodded his head yes. Hmmm.

Well, we soon found out that we were not hearing noise from her room - Reagan had made her way to the basement. Reagan had broken free!

So I took her back upstairs and laid down with her. She fell asleep eventually. I left her room about midnight. That lasted for a few hours.

A few hours later, I woke to a loud slam. It was the baby gate at the top of the stairs. I jumped out of bed and waited for her at the bottom of the stairs in the dark. Funny thing, I couldn't hear her. All I could see was this skeleton walking around the corner (she was in her Halloween PJs). Needless to say, I had to then take the rest of the Dora stickers down in order for her to go back into her room and there I slept until 6:00 am this morning.

I'm tired, but completely impressed by her ability to get out of her room and get to us.
