lowered the mattress

we had to lower the mattress after we found her standing in her crib on wednesday. now that she knows how to crawl, she likes hanging out in her crib because she can all of a sudden get from one end to another and play
but when it came night time she was not a happy camper!

The first night she woke up at 4am and managed to crawl to the edge of her crib and begin to cry. when i came in, she was looking down the hallway with both her feet and hands hanging out of the crib slats. it was sooooo sad i just had to snap a photo cus it broke my heart but was so cute.

All of a sudden she can do so much and she just hasn't gotten used to it. the past few nights i have found her crying in her crib sitting straight up. this is also a new trick, sitting up from laying down position. now she sits up in her sleep, or very close to sleeping and she hasn't figured out how to lay back down. i'm not sure how to teach her that but she needs to learn because I don't know how i'm going to keep going in her room every time she sits up to lower her back to sleeping.
