Amanda likes to climb and jump on everything, which has led Dave to nickname her “little monkey”, or “monk” for short. A couple of weeks ago she tried to swing on the kitchen curtain and broke the curtain rod (thankfully it just popped off the wall and Dave was able to fix it. It helps to have a handyman in the family with kids around!). Eva is getting too big for her toddler bed, so we’ve talked about getting bunk beds, but I keep putting it off. I know Eva would be cautious and probably want to sleep on the lower bunk, but Amanda would be the first to fearlessly jump off the top and break her arm. I joked that this winter we were going to need a rock wall or jungle gym indoors to keep the girls from climbing the furniture, but my parents gave us a small trampoline that my brother and sister had outgrown. Perfect! They love to jump on it, and now mommy has an alternative to offer them when they get the urge to jump on the couch or bed.
