Grace is a climber. It all started innocently enough. She began by climbing into things...the laundry basket, drawers, etc. That quickly got boring and she began climbing onto things...everything. If I turn my back, even for a second, I will find her on top of something. Grace has great problem solving skills therefore nothing is safe. She will climb from her Pooh car onto her activity table and try to climb onto the changing table. She will climb onto her little table and try to climb into the baby bed. The only thing that slows her down are jeans. If I put her in jeans it limits her stretch.

Getting caught on one of her favorite climbs - the big chair. She likes to climb onto the arm and ride it like it is a horse. That puts her about three feet in the air and it terrifies me every time I catch her doing that, I can just see her toppling off onto the floor.




Grace trying to charm her way out of trouble.


Pouting in time out.


Yesterday we went to visit Aunt Terri. Grace was wowing everyone with her front flip.





Terri has this great hammock swing in her back yard and Grace had the best time.

Since she has such a love for jumping, I can only assume that she's jumping on whatever she climbs on. Can you spell T-R-O-U-B-L-E? LOL I love your girl!

I can't tell you how much I LOVE that you took a picture of her in time out! You just don't know how many times I've taken a camera to attempt the same thing but couldn't bring myself to do it. I'm going to have to now the next time I get the chance. You've made it worth it!

My goodness Gracie is getting big.

I love the time out picture, I have thought about taking one of Cami but, its hard to get a picture of her rolling on the floor screaming and kicking when she gets a time out......

Cami is a climber too.
