He really likes to play with the fireplace. Only problem is it's very dirty, and it always turns his hands, feet, and clothes all black with soot. So, for lack of a better idea, we've been laying his stroller down in front of the fireplace covered in a quilt (because he also likes to play with the dirty stroller wheels). This has effectively kept James away from the fireplace...until today.
I looked up from my magazine and James was pulling himself up onto his knees next to the stroller. I went for the camera. By the time I got back, he was on his feet:


The silly boy didn't stop there. Oh no. He was on a mission! Here's what happened next:


Almost there...

Success! (For him anyway...now we need another method of keeping him away from the fireplace. Any brilliant ideas?)
I'm a little worried about what we're in for as James starts getting bigger and perfecting his climbing skills! I think we might just have to spend this weekend baby-proofing areas of the apartment outside of the living room. Wish us luck! ;)

Cute!! I can't believe he's climbing already! You definitely have your work cut out for you with baby proofing. Unfortunately I don't have any helpful hints as we haven't reached that point yet. I'm happy to have the internet again and I LOVED those pictures!
