Yesterday was my 7th wedding anniversary. We decided to stick to our usual dinner out ( THE KEG= yum!), but husband surprised me with a bouquet of beautiful red roses as well.
The Boy LOVED these roses and was mighty upset this morning when he realized I wasn’t going to let him touch them/play with them/destroy them. I said “NO”, he cried and threw his bowl of Rice Krispies off of his high chair tray. Breakfast was done- off he went to play with his toys while I cleaned up the mess…or so I thought.
As I turned around from wiping down the walls, I saw this:
My 15 month old had managed to get up on our kitchen chair, so I did what any good mother would do and grabbed my BlackBerry to capture the moment. But he wasn’t done…apparently, the word “No” means “Find a sneaky way to do what you want without your mother seeing you”, because in the next moment he did this:
Up on our kitchen table, touching those roses.
Today’s lesson?? Our house is now officially unsafe- every surface (except for the kitchen counters) is climb-able for my kid. And “No” means nothing.
I shouldn’t be laughing…because I’m there as well…but the pictures are hilarious!
Yup…that is about right!! PS: love Nanny’s comment!!
I’m sorry Z. I shouldn’t have let you touch them last night when I was holding you. Didn’t mean to get you into trouble. 🙂
that’s awesome
Ohh boy do I remember those days!
They pass. And then you have another baby and are right back at it again.
I swear that’s why I’ve gained 10 pounds over the past 2 years…because I’m not running after a toddler all day anymore.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!
