It is hard to raise a 17-month-old toddler with huuuuge amounts of energy and amazing dexterity in climbing up anything his eye catches. Lately, he's becoming interested in climbing up the window sill and gaze at the garden outside. That's why we need to be super fast and run after him so that he doesn't slip and fall.
Today, my little climbing monkey decided to climb up on the couch and try to put his little fingers in one of the sockets Trumpman uses to charge his phone. We have put covers in all of the sockets that are within his hand's reach, but this one was left unprotected because I had just removed the charger from it and Little Man saw me doing it and ran straight at it! I was right next to him though, watching him as he tried to slowly touch the forbidden socket with a cunning smile on his face. Of course I didn't let him do it, I pulled him away every time he got closer but he kept coming back.
And that's when I remembered that I had a forgotten power strip in a drawer somewhere, so Little Man got a new toy and his curiosity about sockets was partly sated.
He kept himself busy for about ten to fifteen minutes which means that he really really liked that new toy. During this time I was able to wash some dishes and tidy the kitchen table.
I can't stop looking at those baby feet!
They are so cute, I wanna pinch, and kiss and tickle them all day long!
Too bad summer is leaving and we're going to put socks on! I'm gonna miss looking at those bare toes roaming around the house all day!!
Fortunately, in Greece we have at least another month of warm weather, so these toes will be free for a little longer...
