Squig'ms

 

 

 Squig'ms is Mike's nickname for Celeste - it means really wiggly.  She has been really wiggly since she was born.  She is not fun to hold during church!  She started scooting and pulling up to things really early and now that she is 10 months old she is climbing onto things, lots of things.  She can get out of her highchair, even when buckled in, and once out loves to play on the table.  She stands on my oven drawer (which means she can reach hot pans and burners on my stove) and she can get on the furniture too.  She is pretty good about looking first and then turning around and backing off of things that are too high - but when it's the kitchen table, even going feet first instead of head first isn't going to make a big enough difference (luckily she hasn't fallen off the table, yet).

She LOVES to stand at the window.  Usually I am behind her holding her up.  However today she was able to use that wipe container and climb up the back of the couch and then onto the window sill.  She was so pleased with herself.
When upstairs she can go from the elipical to the chair and then onto the couch.  I'm a little bit worried about the next step - the toy shelf is next to the couch and considerably more dangerous.  What will she climb next?
