As EB has grown from clumsy toddler into daring preschooler, I have become more and more convinced each day that he is part monkey. Case in point:
My parents have a flag pole in their front yard:
EB very seriously contemplates whether or not he can climb it:
Yep, I think he’s going for it:
Mmm hmm…there he goes:
It’s harder than it looks:
He finally gives up, goes to find his shoes for better grip and enlists the help of his Paw-Paw.
From the time he started walking, which he did for all of two days and then started RUNNING from there on, I could tell there would be much coronary activity in my future. And this is just one example. *sigh*

No fair spraying Pam vegetable oil on the pole.
*Awe* He is precious and the pictures made me feel kind of homesick.
Aww to be a kid again and see every flagpole as something just begging to be climbed…
Fun! And if he was born after February 16 in 2004, then he IS a monkey!
lets just hope that one day you don’t walk out to find him over halfway up, on his own…
looks like you better keep up mom! oh how i love my monkey boy…they make life fun and interesting. enjoy!
