after being stuck in a carseat for four days, the super crawling, climbing edition of odin is quite happy to have the opportunity to explore his new surroundings which provide almost innumerable opportunities for him to practice pulling himself up.

he’s getting very strong and i’m impressed that he can pull himself up almost entirely with his two hands grasping on to the shelf.

of course i was watching the shelf to make sure it wasn’t about to topple over!

what could possibly be more exciting than an easily accessible bookshelf with lots of available paper teethers and shiny, oddly shaped things just far enough out of reach to make for a challenge worth pursuing?
