My little Monkey

I think we may have given Logan the wrong nickname.  Lately it seems he is less cuddly "Loggie Bear" and more active "Monkey".  I have been so lucky that both Colin and Evan were pretty calm as toddlers compared to other little kids we know, especially other little boys.  Neither of them ever were climbers.  Evan did get in to things more than Colin ever did, but it was manageable.  I am wondering though if Logan might end up being the most active of the three.  He seems to be the most fearless, though he is still very young so this could very easily change.

Logan was the only one of my babies to climb out of the bumbo seat.  In fact I hardly used it with him because he would climb out every time!  Within days of learning to crawl he was already heading to the steps and climbed up a few (luckily after a couple times of saying "no" to the steps, he doesn't seem as interested in them).  He has already been the first to climb out of his highchair seat and luckily we caught him when he was on top of the tray before he fell off (knock on wood this has only happened once also).  And now, he is fascinated with turning himself around in the highchair!

He also is fearless in the bath.  We stopped using his bath seat and he is like a crazy little fish in the water, he just laughs and laughs and crawls all around the tub. 

I hope that he has a little bit of fear because a cautious kid makes for an easier kid (especially at the pool or in parking lots).  Other Moms were always envious of me when I would take Colin and Evan to the pool because I could sit the whole time and I knew my boys were so cautious they wouldn't go anywhere.  I even read a few pages of my book some days.

I am crossing my fingers he doesn't become too much of a Monkey!
