Its a good thing Colin is signed up for a toddler gym class in a few weeks because he is a climbing machine. He loves to climb on things/over things and especially stairs. He has also mastered some of the hard climbing things on the playground - much to his mom's anxiety each time. The other morning I went upstairs really fast to get Colin's shirt to change into and this is what I found. I quickly grabbed the camera and was amazed at his abilities. (don't worry I was standing there with him) There is a climbing thing on the playground that has stair steps going up and then a bar at the top to hold onto. And it does resemble the way Colin is climbing the stairs in the picture. He's going to love his gym class where he'll be told to climb on things and mommy won't have to worry about him getting hurt. Although I do worry about what he'll do when he gets home. If he thinks the stairs are like the playground climbing thing(I don't know the official name) imagine what he will do when he gets home from his gym class.
For those who wondered what happened with Colin climbing out of the crib - we converted the crib into a toddler bed and he loves it. We kept his bumpers as he likes to snuggle up to them and put in a little bed railing. It doesn't keep him from climbing out as you can hear him knocking on his door when he wakes up. (and saying COME IN in a really cute voice.... so cute) But at least thats one less worry I have about him falling when trying to climb out of his crib. Here he is asleep. He was too cute not to take a picture.

i'm glad cole hasn't figured out how to do that on our stairs! i'm sure he'll love the gym class. i think we're going to sign the boys up for a music class. we went to a demo class and cole loved it!
Sarah spent yesterday climbing on the counters at work to hang signs from the ceiling... then spend most of the night climbing on the counters at Amy's house to paint the tops of the walls. Colin comes by it naturally!!
