The day I caught Riley climbing stairs, I had to block the stairs off after this to stop him climbing them.

No Mum, this is an excellent exercise for my legs .. it will give Riley great rear legs but he can absolutely not run, just walk or rather jump at that age  :-)

Ah, I was told by several people that you shouldn't let them climb stairs too early as it can damage their hips, plus I also didn't want him falling down them when I wasn't looking.  I would let him climb them to go to bed and taught him how to come down them safely so now he's an expert at it.  He couldn't jump very well at that age, he would try to get up on the sofa and fail miserably so settle down on the floor touching my feet.  That didn't last long though when his legs grew taller there was no stopping him.
