Monkey See, Monkey Do!

Jude has been a climber since day one! We have had to be SO careful to put everything away because he sees it and realizes it's potential for a "step stool" right away! Joel is absolutely {sigh} following along in his footsteps! For goodness sake, the boy isn't even self sufficiently walking yet...but he can sure climb! I caught him twice within an hour's time yesterday!

Exhibit A: He drug this bag of leggos from the living room into the kitchen in order to climb up to hold onto the oven rail. No duobt he was hopeful of reaching onto the counter!
NOTE: I love that you can look into the background of this picture and see Jude totally lazin' it up in the baby rocker watching Clifford on TV with not the slightest notion that Joel has stolen his leggos for his kitchen exploring adventure! :)

Exhibit B: He dumped all the toys out of his bin, flipped it over and climbed on top to reach the tv remote.


Oh the joys of having boys, aka MONKEYS!!
