Today Blake...

Lately my days have been filled with trying to keep Blake out of trouble.  He is so busy and gets into everything!  He finds things that Brandt and Campbell never even imagined existed.  Our bathroom drawers are completely empty because he pulls everything out of them.  The bathroom counter tops are piled high with all of the things that should go in the drawers, but it is all carefully pushed back 12 inches so that he can't reach it.  He grabs the top of the counter and pulls himself straight up and grabs things.  He hangs off the kitchen cabinets like a little monkey, he even pulls out the kitchen drawers to use as a ladder.  I have to use only the back burners to cook because he was stirring chicken with a spatula when he climbed up while I turned my back for a second the other night.  On Tuesday he pushed all the chairs out from under the table and then climbed on one, onto the table and stood on top of the table and screamed because he was excited that he had done it.  I spent all day Wednesday battling to keep him off the table.  This is our bar height breakfast table.  Table he realized we also have a table in the dining room and I found him sitting on it, but the chair had fallen over and he couldn't get down so he was crying.  Most days he really wears me out!  His favorite pastime is pushing the coffee table against the sofa and then jumping from the coffee table to the sofa, where he lands face first, laughing the whole time.  He is fearless.  I can only imagine what he is going to be like when he is a little older!
