Will is proving himself to be quite the handful of late. The stairs are his main target, and he's working hard to figure out how to unlock the gates himself. Actually, he knows how to do it but isn't quite dexterous enough and, since he isn't, he just shakes the gate in hopes it might fall apart (it just might). Ryan commented that all the babyproofing stuff he made (like the gates) was made for Kate. Will is entirely different animal--or, boy, I suppose since they seem to be a completely different breed when it comes to getting into, onto or around stuff. Despite his love of climbing, Will's first real injury came from Hickory's paw. And who could blame her, given that the the kids dress her as above all day long?? No, just kidding, it was an accidental paw-ing that got Will right under his eye. It looked a bit nasty at first, but is really almost gone now. I'm using Mederma so it won't scar, but I don't think it will anyway. Ironically, the Mederma is purple which makes Will look like he's been a much bigger brawl. We got lucky on this one...fingers crossed we keep it that way!

Sweet Little Will has become a fast moving demon! He still smiles adorably, though, while he is charging around causing havoc. Good luck, Mom and Dad, the race has begun!

What is the allure with the Singleton boys and stairs? It must be some strange gene...like father like son. Ryan took his tumble down a set of very steep basement stairs at 8 months. It didn't slow him down as we know, & he doesn't fear heights (Nepal, Denali, Mt. Whitney, Mt. Shasta). Hang in there, Bryn! Gram Star
