Yeah. Jack's SO "physically disabled." Right.

[LaraMN]

Fyi, when I initially walked in the room, he had his arms up in the air and was standing straight up on top of the crib. He's going to give me a coronary before I hit thirty.

[Midlodemocrat]

1. OMG. Look at that adorable face.

He's something. I think chaining him to his bed might be the only option you have left.

[CottonBear]

2. He may have talent as a gymnast! Are there classes for kids his age?

He's so cute!

[livetohike]

3. Definitely is looking like a potential career as a gymnast

Wow! He's a strong little guy :-).

[gmoney]

4. methinks he's outgrown the crib!

You could send these to the crib manufacturer and give the CEO a coronary. :)

Talented kid -- how did he even do that?

[LaraMN]

23. He goes from in the crib to on the crib in about three seconds.

It's quite an acrobatic feat to watch. He holds onto the arched part, swings a leg up one side, and then swings the other leg onto the other side and hoists himself up. He makes "babyproofing" things a real challenge!

[NewWaveChick1981]

5. Jack's quite an acrobat!

You're gonna have your hands full chasing after him---as if you don't already! :P

:hi:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

6. If you train him properly now, he could be a master thief/assassin!

You're sitting on a gold mine woman!! :D

[sarge43]

18. Yup. He has second storey man written all over him.

Those are also excellent future blackmail pics.

[Whoa_Nelly]

7. Awwwww...I just want to hug him all up!

In the first pic he appears to be looking up at something. Is there something he was after, or is he just being his sweet, precocious, and astounding self?

I'm bullish on Jack! He's going places!


Thanks for sharing those adorable pics, LaraMN! :loveya: :hi:

[LynzM]

8. Oh lord....

1.) for the cuteness!! Love it!
2.) get that kid on a climbing wall, LOL. Wowza.

Physically disabled, my ass! :rofl:

[Mutley]

9. Look at that kid! What a cutie.

Someone looks ready for a big boy bed. :D

[asthmaticeog]

10. You know what? I love the way you think.

When my mom caught me in those kinds of potentially dangerous hi-jinx, I got chewed out or spanked. But you? You go for the camera and make jokes!
You, ma'am, are enlightened. :patriot:

[progmom]

11. I agree wholeheartedly

:applause:

[ThomCat]

13. I agree. What a great Mom!

:)

[MissMillie]

15. that's funny...

when I caught my son doing something like that I always felt grateful that I got there before he really hurt himself. I'd always pick him up and give him a big hug and tell him how much I worry that he's going to get a boo-boo!

[asthmaticeog]

21. LOL - two VERY different ways of expressing fretfulness, I guess.

:)

[LaraMN]

24. The way I see it, I have two choices:

1. Freak out about this kind of stuff and, considering the frequency with which it happens, likely cause my own head to implode, or:
2. Appreciate his ingenuity, however terrifying, and enjoy the fact that kids do amazingly crazy stuff. Then find a way to net him in, or something.:rofl:

[txwhitedove]

12. Oh, LaraMN, he has such a strong spirit and a beautiful face.

My granddaughter was a climber. While you admire their fearlessness, it can be frightening and exhausting chasing them around. You sound like a wonderful loving mother.

[Orrex]

14. Obviously he's got the wrong idea

How in the world is he going to lift that crib if he's standing on it?

I mean, come on!
:rofl:



Anyway, if I saw my son doing that, I'd be horrified! I hope that Jack got down from his perch without further incident!

[tigereye]

16. you either need one of those mesh tops they have for cribs

or it's time for a toddler bed. Then he can "surprise you" in the middle of the night until you have to put a gate on the bedroom door! (well, that's what happened in my house)

I would have had a coronary if my son had done that. :) But clearly he's destined for the gym!

[seemunkee]

17. Ninja skills

My mother frequently found me sleeping in other places than the crib. I've been a rock climber for 30 years now, see what it leads to.

[RevCheesehead]

19. Jack!!!

:loveya:

[miss_american_pie]

20. OMG Lara!

Never a dull moment, is there? :)

[LaraMN]

22. Nope. Did you note the surveillance camera on his wall?

I guess I'd better plug it in, again.

[miss_american_pie]

25. You could make some money

on one of those home video shows.

[gmoney]

26. LOL...

Saw the "video surveillance camera" heading, followed by "you could make some money" in a LaraMN thread...

Three guesses where MY mind went as to how Lara could make some money. :hide:

[miss_american_pie]

28. Not sweet innocent Lara

That's a blasphemous suggestion. ;)

[Misunderestimator]

27. OMG! That is so cute!!

Scary cute even. Wow. That takes some dexterity! And what a cutie.

[Blue Diadem]

29. *giggle* You've got quite an acrobat there Mom..

He looks like he's really enjoying himself. It's good you can stay calm. I'd either drop over or start shrieking and scare the child.

Great pics.

[BlueIris]

30. Aw. He's a cutie, LaraMN.

:-)

[Momgonepostal]

31. Yikes! Toddler bed time?

He's a cutie, and I bet he gives you a run for your money!

Does he climb other things, too?

[Mojambo]

32. We've got one of those

I swear, the boy isn't going to make it to age 10.

There's just no way.

[Karenina]

33. I clicked on this thread earlier

and the pix didn't show. Just about to log off I, clicked again and had my BEST MOMENT OF THE DAY!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

GOOOOOOO, JACK!!!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Thanx, Lara for sharing your rugrat's antics!!! WHAT a PIP!!!

[SeattleGirl]

34. Jack, it's not nice to give mommy heart failure!

:rofl:

Geez, Lara, that is one strong boy you've got there!

[WeRQ4U]

35. Whoa buddy!!

That's freakin' ME out and he's not my kid. If I caught Max doing that they'd probably have to peel me off the floor. I'd pass out.

[brook]

36. It's obviously...

the spaghetti, Lara. :)

That you had the presence of mind to go for a camera instead of a fainting couch is wonderful!
Jack's a lucky fellow...just as we are - to be able to share in his adventures. Merci.

[bicentennial_baby]

37. Jack's so freaking awesome!!

He might just be my favorite DU child...sigh. :loveya:

[AlCzervik]

38. good lord, if thats physically disabled then i'd hate to see him when

he's "Abled" Love the face btw, he's gonna give his momma a run for her money. My daughter wants you to hug him for her, me too.:hi:

[wildhorses]

39. Oh Lara, what a buster brown you have on your hands...

climbing like a monkey. He is absolutely adorable. I could just hug him from here.:hug:
Thanks for sharing:hi:

[Floogeldy]

40. What a stud!

:)

[NMMNG]

41. What a doll!

What is it on the ceiling that he's so interested in in that top pic?
