Oh no, She Thinks she is a Climbing Monkey!

Yep, we are in BIG trouble. We have a climbing monkey on our hands!!! I really don't know who taught her this but I don't like it one bit. She climbs up on the couch, on the chairs, the railings of her crib, up on the sliding mirror closet doors, into her car seat... and she is not very stable. She has fallen and hit her head about 10 times today alone.

And then when she gets up and standing she gets this little rascal grin, as if to say, "look at me I am up again."
So lucky me, I am chasing her around the apartment all day, good thing it is small, and catching her or making sure she is not going to bang her head on anything sharp or hard. I have given up keeping her off the side of the couch. By now I have decided that when she falls backwards and hits her head on the carpet, tough luck to her, she won't die.

So to add to her newly acquired climbing sport, today she learned to shuffle that little body alongside the couch to get to the other side and around the corner. Oh great. I really just want to take a nap.

  1. She gets cuter and cuter every day! I can't believe how big she has grown too. I am sorry to say this Dayna, but I'm not at all surprised she is a climbing monkey. The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree I'm afraid. It probably won't be long before she's dragging you up some much bigger climbs. She's got your adventurous spirit! I can't wait to meet her!
