Today at work I got a phone call from Jon telling me that Hannah had pushed a kitchen chair over to the baby gate (nothing new), climbed onto the chair (a recent trick), and then climbed over the baby gate by lowering herself down to the other side (WHAT?!). Jon discovered her in the laundry room with a handful of dog food from Abby's food bin (which Hannah had also opened). Wow. You can't really baby-proof for these aerobatics!
Later that night when I got home from work, I went into the family room to get something before clearing the table after dinner...Jon had warned me that Hannah had climbed ONTO the table when he turned his back on her while preparing dinner....but I was out of the room a little too long.
Apparently, the cross bars on the bottom of the chairs provide the little extra lift that Hannah needs to get her little legs up onto the chair. Then, our strong little determined girl pulls herself up and off she goes. What a kid we've got....and she thinks it's so funny to climb on tables and chairs!
