A Climbing Rite of Passage


Hannah has been crawling for awhile now, and she pulls up on everything and will even cruise a little bit, but she still doesn't have much interest in standing on her own.  So today we were a little surprised to see her, on her own accord, take on the difficult challenge of climbing up the slide.  Given Joshua's propensity to climb everything, if we would have had the slide at the time, I'm sure it would have been one of the first things he conquered.  Clara, too, decided on her own to scale the orange mountain.  And now Hannah has joined the club, as it only took her a few tries to make it to the top.  She seems to take less pride in her accomplishments than the other kids did, and when she got to the top she just looked at me like "Yeah, of course I'm here.  It's not a big deal.  What did you expect?"
