Climber Baby

On Friday, in one swoop, Blake figured out how to climb stairs. For a couple weeks now he'd been eyeing them but hadn't made any big moves yet. Grandma was unloading the dishwasher & could hear him playing over by the stairs. When it got quiet she went to investigate. She stepped just a bit around the corner, no Blake -- maybe he made it up a step? Stepped further around the corner, still no Blake -- looking around the living room wondering where he crawled to. Stepped all the way around the corner to find him six stairs up!
  
And he did it with a ball in each hand!

 After watching him climb a few stairs, it's a good thing he kept going that first time -- when he's done he tries to sit back (his escape when standing) which would have sent him tumbling down the stairs.
 He's pretty pleased with himself.
