Sam's balancing act


What makes Sam think this is a good idea? It started out that she would only let me change her diaper when she was laying on the bottom step. It was a little tricky, but doable. I knew if some reason, Sam fell off the step, it wasn't going to be that bad of a fall. Once she got the new diaper on, she'd get up and keep going about her business.

Then, somewhere along the way, Sam started laying on some of the higher steps -- just because. It became a place she enjoyed hanging out on. Sometimes with her blanket and lovey and sometimes with nothing in particular. It is a little freaky to turn the corner and see her on the steps. I fear that she will forget how narrow the space is and roll off. Or, I'll quickly run down the stairs for something and step or trip on her. For some reason she finds this space to be a comforting place. It makes no sense and since this is something that Ian never discovered doing, it never occurred to me that she would want to.

Very bizarre. Fortunately it is only a matter of time before she is longer than width of the step.
