Colin will be 11 months on the 19th and boy, has he taken off. He is standing at everything and has heightened our concern over what areas of the house are safe for him!
Last week, at swimming lessons, I had just placed him in the stroller to hang up the girls coats/clothing. In a matter of seconds, he had turned around and stood up in the stroller, only to find himself stuck in the canopy of the stroller! Note to self: COLIN must always be buckled into everything!
The other day, he crawled over to his highchair, stood up and pushed it all the way to the wall before turning 90 degrees without holding onto anything and then lowering himself down to crawl away. (Just a matter of time, I know....and he'll be walking!)
That same day, he stood up at a laundry basket, did a forward roll into the basket and then proceeded to try to figure out how to climb out of the basket and up onto the chair that the basket was against. When that did not work, he proceeded to unfold the clothes and throw them out of the basket!
And finally, today, we were at a store and he was buckled into the cart. He managed to twist around (despite being buckled) and started to stand up. The clerk was very concerned until she saw he was buckled in. I told her that he was quite the Houdini...quite fitting that Appleton has a Houdini museum--perhaps Colin will work there someday! ;)
