This Little Boy Is A Climber!

He's been in the dishwasher and on the kitchen counters before and now he has made it to the stove. Luckily nothing was cooking! This is my grandson, Christian, that just made one year old in November. He's been going 90 to nothing since he learned how to walk. They have had a hard time keeping him out of the Christmas tree stand and playing with the water there. He is now getting a little spanking for that. I foresee a lot of spankings in his future. I guess he gets this from me. I climbed on top of the refrigerator when I was that age from what I have been told. Do you are did you have a climber? Were you able to stop them or did you just have to watch them closely and pray that the phase would be over with soon?

I was never really a climber I don't think. He's cute.

He's a little stinker! But he has my heart all wrapped up, 100%. You always know when he feels bad because he is smiling all the time.

I was told I drove mom crazy, I was constantly climbing out of my crib even before I could walk then when I was three I was a runner. Mom never mentioned if I climbed on the stove but I probably didn't. Love the look on his face, he's adorable.

If he does not fall and he enjoys, let him climb. I was not a climber, my brother was.

I was a climber and I had a climber. I was not able to stop my middle daughter from climbing. She was determined to be on top of...well, everything.

I spider manned on the windows of our old house in Manila on the second floor but probably I was a little bit older than Christian, I later came to love mountains and mountain climbed when I was younger. None of my children are climbers.

I wonder what goes through their head? This one loves to eat. He may have thought there was food up there. Who knows!?

He is adorable, and you certainly have to keep an eye on him. Our younger son was a climber and turned out to be a sought after athlete in wrestling and football.

Yes I have a climber. She's a 6 year old feline who loves to climb on the table, counters, fridge, stove, window sill, under the kitchen sink, into drawers.... Her name is Athena. In this photo she just knocked the tablecloth onto the floor.
