this could work to your advantage if she stays there... time out on top of the dresser (or the fridge when she gets a little more gutsy) can be a wonderful thing.
shhh... not that I'd know, but be sure not to store any goodies in the cabinets near the fridge.
My daughter learned to get out of her crib when she was only 10 months old. It was awful, and in those days they didn't have those crib toppers to keep them in, so I didn't sleep too well worrying about her.
The thing is, she didn't climb out...She would just flop herself up and over and out, like a fish. Not the safest mode of exit.
I walked into my kitchen and found her on top of my refrigerator when she was the same age, 10 months. THAT was scary. You should have seen me sneaking slowly up on her, speaking in soothing tones so as not to startle her and make her fall or jump.
Oh yeah, when my kids got to this point, the crib got put away and the mattress was laid quietly on the floor. I never could stop the nightmares from the "what if's". They grow up way too fast!
Move the dresser it might give you a few more days. If you're lucky like me your cute kiddy will fall and cry and then never try it again!! (P.S. I know that sounds mean but it worked out - ha ha!).
I'm a 36year old chocolate eating, gospel loving, high heel wearing, imperfect mom of seven cute little monsters, and wife to one great man; all of whom I love with my whole soul.
These are our many adventures together as a family.

Yikes! Luckily she hasn't tried to get down from there yet! I remember those days.....*sighing*

One smart cookie!
I remember all too clearly when my kids climbed out
Hahaha, that IS the worst day!!! But she is so cute. :)
Ah, sweet girl, she's just making room for the new baby!
I don't see any issues with this new found skill.
As long as she just stays there you're all good.
