LOL--Welcome to the world of a spirited, busy child!!!
Our dd was/is the same way. Crawled at 6 months, cruised about the same time and was running by 11 months
![Shocked :o](https://smiley.babywhispererforums.com/Smileys/classic/shocked.gif)
. She could climb the small slides at the park by 10 months which shocked everyone who watched her. And she continues to just amaze us with her energy--she is still very physically active, and now she talks non-stop from the time she wakes up until she finally crashes at night.
It is so exhausting and can be very frustrating, but is also so much fun! And yes, you will get a lot of comments from other people because the activity level is just a step higher than the normal busy toddler, but that doesn't mean anything is wrong with them
I've found that if I can provide lots of active times for her in ways that are okay with me, it keeps her out of trouble and she is better able to listen and cooperate when I need her to remain a little more calm. So we have always done lots of outdoor activities where she can run and climb and play as hard and loud as she wants (little harder now that its winter and we moved to a cold climate--and her behaviour has shown that she's missing it!) I actually take her to an indoor track and have her run laps with me somedays! She can run about a 1/2 mile straight no problem!
Enjoy your busy boy!!!!
