The Return of Monkey Boy!!!

Well, just when you thought you had safeguarded your house, the monkey boy finds something new to climb out of. He has a high chair which does not have a belt in it. It is the kind where you just push the tray up against them. He has been sitting in that thing for months now and never once even moved, much less tried to climb out of it!

He had just finished his dinner and I was going to put him in bed. All the sheets and blankets for his bed were in the dryer which is just right down the hallway. I left him in the high chair with a bottle, I got his clothes out of the dryer and went in his room to put all the sheets back on his bed. I noticed he was being really quiet but I thought he was safely in his high chair and just playing or something. WRONG!!!

I look out his bedroom door to check on him and he is on top of my kitchen table on his hands an knees just sitting there. I run and grab him and about have a heart attack at the same time! So let me explain how he did this. I had his high chair in the living room and there is a divider between the living room and dining room. It is a half wall that has 4 spindles going up to the ceiling. Apparently he had pulled on the back of the high chair till he was standing up and then proceeded to climb through the spindles and onto the table!

Just a warning for all you moms out there, never underestimate what an 11 month old can figure out. Thank God he was not hurt, I would have never dreamed he could climb out of the high chair and onto the able. You can never leave them unsupervised for a second!
