My daghter was so different he is driving me crzy!!! lol, I can not remove my furniture, I can not live in a tent or a bubble! I am telling him no and sit down and I put him down in a sitting positinn...but it does not seem to work. I take him a lot the playparks to get him busy there.....Will he ever stop?
Also, he still chews on everything he has or can have in his little fingers. Again, I am doing my best to stop him from doing it, but he says Yum....what ever he picks up! The other day he eneded up touching fresh geese poop, how gross! He is a fast mover, Mr Escaper.
Heh...my daughter who is 14 months old is very active and a climber as well. Plus, she is teething so everything gets chewed. At this age, you can't expect them to sit still any length of time. They just aren't at that point developmentally. So, I make sure she gets lots of exercise every day (sometimes 3-4 hours at the park) and set up spaces in my house that she can run and explore safely. Yes, my bedroom looks odd with a mattress on the floor and virtually no furniture in it, but hey, it works. As for the chewing, I make sure we always have an appropriate chew toy at hand and substitute it every time she puts something in her mouth that I don't want her chewing on.
As for the goose poo, well, it washes off. -shrug- Gross, but not a big deal.
