Crazy Climber

Look at the mischievous smile. I am sure that you think that I am just being facetious because he is a boy...no....I have seen nothing like him. In fact, I dread going to peoples houses that are not child proofed. It is just a workout for me. He climbs everywhere. He knows how to distract you too. He will do something that he shouldn't be doing (like climb on a book shelf or something) and then when you go to get him, he will go to the only chair down in the house, because you were sitting on it (yes, we continually keep all of our chairs on top of our table) and then he will push it to where he wants to climb. And If you are not fast enough, he will get on top of the counter where we keep our computer, or on top of the oven to play with the buttons, etc. He even knows that he can push our recliner from the living room into the dining room to pull the chairs off the table so that he can use them to get somewhere else. I know, scary right. Anyways, the picture below is our new contraption to keep him out of the oven. Yesterday he opened the oven at least 17 times to climb inside. When I got home from work, this is what Eric had fixed up:




Love, Tamber

I am laughing so hard because I sooooo know what you are talking about. Ryker is the exact same way. When I have places I need to go (like get my eyebrows waxed) and they say, "oh just bring him with you.". I just laugh because there is no way no how I am doing that. Maybe it is the McAllister blood in them. I used to blame it on the boy thing, but there are other boys I have been around at his age and they weren't as bad as him. I am so glad someone else knows what I am going through and vise versa. I feel your pain!
