Success!

After much thought, we solved our baby-likes-to-crawl-in-bed-after-a-nap problem by buying two more bed rails for Gaz's bed (a double mattress and box springs on the floor in one corner of her room). One goes along the foot and one goes along the side. This is now the Official Nap Venue. If she wakes up quietly and gets out of bed, she won't fall any farther than she would while standing up propped up by the couch in the living room. Maybe a little headbonk, but nothing as serious as is possible from our bed. Yay! Because the other option was to buy a crib, which we were trying to avoid in the first place for many reasons, not the least of which was cost.

Gaz is, as we speak, snoozing peacefully in her bed. For almost two hours now. I love it when a plan comes together.
