My little boy is now 16 months old. He has suddenly turned into a little monster. I don't remember the girls ever being this rambunctious. He is into everything. I have tried just redirection that is a temporary fix. He waits for the opportunity and gets right back into it. He climbs on the dining room table into the entertainment center cabinet and he is constantly caught on the steps to the girls' rooms. I am afraid it won't be long and he is going to seriously get hurt. I have even tried time out and spanking. He just thinks it is funny. I am glad he is the only boy and our last child because I think he will be the death of me.

He is a big sweetie most of the time. I think he just needs to be exploring or climbing and conquering things all the time. It must be a boy thing. He is also very fearless. He doesn't even look back to see if I am following behind him when he gets outside he just keeps going and exploring. Maybe I have just been to good at protecting him and the first real injury will slow him down or not?
