Bram IS trouble!
Bram loves to climb and is constantly trying to challenge himself. The last day or two he has managed with great effort to climb onto the kitchen chairs. I tried to get a video of him doing that tonight. I got more than I bargained for.
He also had found an interesting way of getting down from the chair when it was close to the table so I wanted to capture that as well. He basically tries to get himself down with what I'll call a reverse chin-up. So anyway, after making him get off the table after the first video, I captured this next video one. You'll see the reverse chin-up move in here as well as tears initially because I had just taken him off the table. Jonah (AKA Batman) actually tells him to get on the table in this video and laughs when he gets there. I wasn't impressed. I ended up cutting the video, taking Bram off the table, and he had such a melt-down / temper tantrum that I had to put him in his bed with his blanket and soother in order to calm him down. After that we cuddled and I brought him over to the table and tried to explain to him dramatically what could happen if he fell off. This type of thing recently worked really well but not tonight - instead, he seemed to think it would be funny - the whole part about falling off the table and banging on the floor and hurting his head, etc. I kinda wonder what tomorrow will bring!

When I read this, I felt like I could have written it myself about Wesley. There isn't anything that boy won't climb. When he was Bram's age I couldn't turn my back on him for a second without finding him on the dining room table or the piano. You've got some fun times ahead!
