He really wanted that toy!

This one is about Colin. Finally! He makes me laugh everyday but today was different. We were all sitting in Connor's room while I was trying to clean out some of the toys (preparing for Christmas). We have a Little Tikes Activity Garden in Connor's room. I brought it from outside because I thought Colin would like to use it to pull himself up. He just recently started grabbing onto things and pulling up to his knees and even standing a few times. I took a few toys out of Connor's closet and I could tell Colin was interested in one of them. He started reaching out for it. He's about 2 feet away and the Garden is between the toy and him. I'd say the side of the Garden is about 1.5ft off the floor. So he's got a small wall in his way. At this point, I'm still cleaning out the closet. I turn to look at Colin and he's tipping over the wall. I'm terrible in situations like this. I sit there in shock and just say "Oh my God!". Head first. Again, he's only a foot and a half off the floor. I was still worried that it might upset him. His head gets to the ground first, then the rest of his body rolls down. It only takes a second to realize he's fine. I start laughing and he just looks at me and smiles BIG. Then he proceeds to get the toy he was eyeing. I'm still laughing and I tell him I would've given him the toy, he didn't have to climb over a wall.
