Remember the trips down the stairs in the sleeping bag? Remember crumpling at the bottom in a little heap?
C likes to do it, sans sleeping bag. She situates herself with her tummy against the stairs, and then just bumpity-bumps all the way down. She uses her arms and legs to steady herself and keep herself from building up too much speed, and Mommy stands a few steps below her at all times, just in case she loses control. But it is the funniest thing ever. I don’t know why but I keep picturing her sliding down a fire pole someday.
Note: the aforementioned sleeping bag activity is recommended in a nylon sleeping bag and on carpeted stairs only. Like most kid activities, it is hilarious fun, but you WILL bruise.

I can’t wait to see “chica” do this!
That was such a fun activity. I’m quite honestly surprised that with all of the crazy jackass stunts that we used to do, we’re all still around and in one piece. Sliding down carpeted stairs in nylon sleeping bags??? Yeah, sounds safe to me.
