One day shy of his 7th month, Spudly decided that crawling is for chumps and stands up on his own and beats his toy box to death.
We are so not ready for this. Arent they supposed to crawl for at least a few months, just to get you ready for the idea that your house is actually a death trap?
Send help. And possibly restraints.
Death trap. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, though... we childproofed our house - not in the overly protective, all cabinets locked way, but in the only the poison cleaner cabinets locked way. We put the plugs in the electrical outlests, but then we just changed what was low in the house so that they could play with it all. This gave The Mayor a lot of freedom to explore, he could make his own fun and we didn't have to chase him around and worry about every little thing he might get into.
Now, when he starts CLIMBING... then you're F*CKED.
:)
My eldest was super early at everything and it seems Spudley is going to be the same. Mine only crawled for about a week or two and then took off!
ReplyDeleteLike pp said....the climbing is the worst!
Lily scared the shit out of us when after about 2 days of crawling she started to pull herslef to standing on EVERYTHING!!! We thought she was going to start walking any second. But, 3 months later, she's still crawling, still standing up on everything, but you know what, it's not been that bad really. Hopefully Spudly will do the same, but watch out for stairs if you got em, climbing those things is one of Lily's favourite games!!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, yeah. All bets are off. Ben is 4 days older than Spudley. He's been pulling himself up, and in the rocking-back-and-forth-on-all-fours stage for crawling. Two wee teeth on the bottom. They're ALL different! No rules! Ack!!!! Outlets are all covered, but another mom told me to hold off on the kitchen cabinet door locks until they figure out that they can open them.
ReplyDeleteSpud's looking adoraable!
Oh...child-proofing methinks! Bbay Eggs is raring to start crawling so I have it all in front of me. Spudly is obviously very advanced.
ReplyDeletePero que puta eres, y tu hijo es un hijo de puta bastardo de mala madre.
ReplyDeletewow I didn't know you'd started accepting money for the act of sweet love! Thankyou anonymous and FUCKING EVIL spanish speaker for enlightening us all. Love you sweet panda, and fuck you anonymous.
