Mr. No Fear
>> Monday, June 18, 2007
Austin has become Mr. No Fear these days. Nothing, absolutely nothing seems to scare him. Which I guess is a good thing, but certainly keeps mommy and daddy on their toes.
A few examples to prove my point:
Last week, I took him to the park after work. There are two play structures at this park -- a baby play area (for ages 2-5) and an older child area (aged 5-12). Austin only likes the big kid slide. Why, because there's 8 stairs to climb up instead of only 3 and the slide is longer AND twirls around, whereas the baby slide is straight and short. And of course, it's way more fun to go down on your tummy, head first.
Another good example is, he likes to climb up on the couch. And once up, he sees no reason why he shouldn't climb up on the back of the couch. So there he is, crawling along the back of the couch, while we hover between trying not to laugh and trying to tell him no.
And finally, a video:
