At 18 months and 1 day, Samuel showed us that he could scale the baby gates so yet again we've had to rearrange the house. We put him in the playpen so we could move a table and he was out of it before I could turn around. Lord, have mercy on us! Maybe he's getting me back for having him get a hepatitis A shot today that isn't required (or modifying his bed yesterday). I had to make a partial plywood door to the basement to keep Samuel out and hopefully still allow Shirley access to her food and facilities. We're quickly running out of "higher ground" for our things.
