Climber

My other boys were nothing like this third one. He was a proficient walker well before his first birthday, he mastered the stairs around the time he turned one, and now he climbs on, in, and out of everything. The child is unstoppable - a houdini of sorts. :) We strap him in his highchair and he stands up; we turn our backs for a second while he is playing and we find him standing in the middle of the kitchen table. The train table is his own personal dance floor and nothing stops him for getting where he wants. We watch him like a hawk, we put gates and barriers up and yet, we still find ourselves slightly terrified. He recently decided to climb on his stroller and we caught it on camera - he might be a little proud of himself - what do you think? :)

When we were at the park the other the day, he climbed the ladder/stairs to the slide and then proceeded to try to walk down the slide. He IS unstoppable, but cute.

So cute! The third one is a charm for me too. Asa likes to stand on the toilet when we aren't looking. He is so fast too. What is up with that? If we put these two together I see trouble. :)
