Gray hair

Ever since Will learned how to walk and run he's been focusing his efforts on other wonderful activities... like jumping and climbing. Today he was particularly interested in the climbing and enjoyed climbing up on the window sills to watch the tractor plow the field behind our house... and the big climb today... up onto the kitchen table. The windowsill thing is something he learned how to do months and months ago, but this table thing is new as of today, and is going to obviously require very close monitoring whereas it is a long way to the floor from the table. While I was washing the dinner dishes this evening the little poop, I mean the little cutie, pushed a chair out from the table and somehow managed to figure out how to use the chair to stand up and then get on the table. I looked up from the sink and what do I see... my cute little man squatting on top of the table playing with the rocks on my centerpiece. Seriously, way to give a Mom a heart attack!! I calmly removed him from the table with a stern "no we don't climb on the kitchen table it's for eating," and he looked at me with that cute little grin of his and proceeded to climb right back on and grab the bag of goldfish. Sigh... I just can't win sometimes with him :)

But mom, you told me I couldn't stand on the windowsill, you said nothing about sitting...

What? All I wanted was a snack!!
