Roman the Monkey

February 20, 2009

Roman has some little pajamas that have monkeys all over them. They’re some of my favorites. He really lives up to them, too. About a month ago we discovered he could climb up onto the bar in the kitchen. At church, he enjoys climbing up on the folded chairs stacked against the wall. And two days ago, we discovered that he has conquered a new quest — Logan and Eden’s bunk bed. I decided to pull the video camera out and record him. Julie had caught him doing it the first time, so I wasn’t too nervous, knowing that he had successfully climbed it before. But then on top, he decided he was going to do the slide on his own — and he hadn’t done that one before. So I got most nervous about that, because that slide is FAST. But no need to worry, he handled it just fine, going on his stomach feet first, with his little toes pressed against the slide all the way down to keep himself from going too fast. I thought it was pretty funny. Here’s the footage:
