It's a triumphant moment when after months of practicing and working on something it finally clicks and you watch your child succeed. We have been working with the girls since they started crawling up the stairs that they needed to turn around go down backwards to get to the bottom safely. You hope with some serious repetition that one day .jpg)
they might actually understand what you are trying to teach them. Kaitlyn finally managed to do that today. From the top she turned around and went down on her knees without stopping or turning around for a look. The landing was the hardest part because she just has to keep sliding. I was so proud of her and so glad she is a tiny bit safer on the stairs, though the gates will be shut and locked for 99% of the time at least for another year or so! One down, one to go. Now we will focus on little Brynnie Brynn. We'll let you know how that goes!

This is so funny, because Alice just mastered this last week as well. It is so nice that she can go up and down the stairs at will. Before she would cry at the top waiting for someone to carry her down. I have never had gates, I just figure every child will fall down once or twice and then they'll learn. Sounds very abusive when I write it down, doesn't it?
