Any time now...

You know that hand-over-hand method of climbing a rope they used to make you do way back in gym class? Where you couldn't use your legs?

Picture Max, flat on his belly, exploiting the edge of the living room rug in the very same fashion.

So far this week we have found him in various parts of the room - purely by rolling one way or another and; a)pulling stuffed animals off his little rocking chair; b)curling up the corner of the rug to suck on it while playing with the tags attached underneath; c)trying to eat the couch by way of the skirting at the bottom; d)and among many more, getting stuck between pieces of furniture, leaving us without a clue as to how he did it.

It's only beginning you all say. We know, we know...

I'm sure that Nanny has told you to expect the little guy to go after the one thing in your house that you don't want him to mess with. They have this uncanny ability to read your mind and make a beeline right to that one object that they shouldn't be messing with. And they will do it over and over and over again until you finally give in and move the damn thing. If you can. Our son loved chewing on the window ledge in our dining room. Something that you can't easily move. When we were prepping that house to move out of it, I found myself filling in the teeth marks and teeth gouges that went all the way down to the metal edge beading. Enjoy it though and take a lot of pictures. They're great to have to hold over the kid's head when he grows up.

Hey MaxeyMoo!
Just talked to your daddy and I hear you're doing the old "combat crawl" now. I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT! It's a whole different world out there for you now, and this is where mommy and daddy need to develop those eyes in the back of their heads.
Can't wait to see you on Tuesday---we're gonna rock and roll!
Love you bunches!
xoxo Nanny
