Spiderman!

Just this week Colin developed a new skill. He's still too little to climb onto the couch by himself, but has come up with a creative solution.

Colin will walk up to the sofa, leans forward, the stretches his foot back until it finds the coffee table. He then walks up the side of the coffee table until his whole body is horizontal (parallel to the floor), then gives a little push forward and... viola! He's on the sofa.  Who needs a step-stools when you can just climb the walls like Spider-man?

Thankfully he also knows how to get down (safely) on his own by laying on his belly and sliding backward until his feet hit the ground.

He's not even 16 months old and the kid is problem solving. This is great news for the future of America, but baaaaad news for Colin's poor parents.
