In the past week Gabe has learned to:
1. Climb out of his pack-n-play
2. Climb out of his crib
3. Open doors
So until the crib tent I ordered arrives, this 21.5-month-old will successfully be avoiding naps. (Still not sure what to do about nap time when I teach preschool twice a week, which used to happen in the pack-n-play.) And of course this is the week Jonny and I will be leaving on our California get-a-way. My sincerest apologies to my mom and sisters who will be taking on our newest little escape artist. Best wishes and good luck.
As for the doorknob thing, until Gabe thinks to move a chair over to the front door in order to reach the top lock, we may be able to keep him safely indoors. I give him two days.
P.S. Julia didn't climb out of the pack-n-play until she was two. (And I believe it was the very last day of preschool that year!) She never climbed out of her crib, and slept there happily until we gave her a big bed for the third birthday. I had a feeling the Gabe monster would surpass his sister in such matters.

I just ordered one of these so I don't have to worry about Jack answering the door to strangers before I can get to it...My sister amber has one and loves it. Maybe you need one on your front door to contain the Gabester :)

Good luck with that little man. let us know how the crib tent works out!
Crazy boy!! We'll keep him safe.
I am so, so sorry! Luckily, Asher is such a wimp he will barely get off the couch himself. I have successfully terrorized him into submission. Now you better get this under control, so Gabe doesn't teach Asher the feeling of freedom!
