Kyler has been way into climbing trees lately. He liked climbing our maple in our backyard. It was easy for him to get into. The only problem is, it is still a very young tree. After one day of his climbing, Dan had to cut down five or so branches that Kyler cracked. The next day I caught him trying to get into the maple again. I told him he could no longer climb that one. He was irritated and told me he didn't have a tree to climb now. Me being the smart mouth that I am, told him he was free to climb the pine tree which is somewhere between 30 and 40 feet in the air. The branches are so high up I didn't think he could ever get up there. Boy was I wrong! Shortly after I said that Dan walked in the door from work. He told me very casually that I needed to come outside and see something. Kyler figured out a way into the tree and was more than half way up! He is our little monkey and a very determined one at that!
