Really, we could teach a monkey a thing or two. Climbing in and out of our cribs was a piece of cake -- and loads of fun. Even more fun was taking out all the books from our bookshelves. Even more fun was knocking all the pictures off the walls. Even more fun was pulling all our clothes out of the dresser. Even more fun was almost tipping our rocking chair over.
