A Mutiny is Brewing

Our beloved gate has been helping us barricade our little monster for months now. But the tides are turning and he is getting smarter and smarter.....

At the top of the stairs, I have to attach the gate about 5 inches above the ground due to the design of the banister (see photos below). Well, today I walked out of my bedroom and saw Everett on the other side of the gate climbing down the stairs. My clever little boy crawled under the gate (only a 5 inch space!!!!) and, like his Mommy taught him, climbed down backwards. I am sometimes fearful that he is going to overtake me and I will be tied to a chair when Billy comes home from work and Everett will have walked out the front door.
