She did WHAT?

After a rough night with Elise (waking up at midnight and not going back to sleep until about 4:30 a.m.), we woke up to a bit of a surprise this morning. We awoke to hearing her chatting quietly to herself this morning. It was about 8:15, a FULL 30 minutes later than she usually wakes up. Gee Elise, thanks for that early Christmas present. Anyway, that's not the surprise.

While we were getting ready to go get her out of her crib, we hear a small thud. It sounded like she was pounding on the wall, something she's done a million times, so we didn't think anything of it. We walk down the hallway and notice her door was closed, not cracked open like we usually leave. Huh, that's weird.

Well, we open the door and were aghast to see Elise wandering around her room! Somehow she had gotten out of her crib. We never heard her cry after the thud, and we have no idea how she even managed to get out. The railing comes up to about her shoulders, and there is NO WAY she has the upper body strength to hoist herself out of the crib.

How did this happen? How do I stop it from happening again? She's only 15 months old, isn't that a little young for this? Anybody???

Oh Poop!

Calling all Mommas! I need your tips on how to get a poop stain off of Elise's portable changing pad. She had the mother of all blowouts (I didn't realize it until I opened her sleeper and saw it all up her back, and by that time it was too late), and it got onto the white changing pad I use to change her when I'm downstairs. I washed it off almost immediately, but there's still a "brownish hue" that remains.

Any ideas? Anyone?


Edited to add: Thanks for the suggestions. I didn't have any Oxiclean, but I found some cleaning stuff that had "Oxypower" (whatever that means). It worked! Looks like I should add Oxiclean to my shopping list though...
