What's that saying?


What is that old saying...."too smart for your own good"? Well, that is what Owen is. Case in point. Chris installed these super great "tot locks" on our cabinets to keep Owen out. They are magentic from the inside, and you need a magnet key to unlock them. Well, above, you can see O eying the cabinet, and really wishing that he could get in there and drag out all of the pots and pans. Unfortunately, he can't open it, because it is LOCKED! Bwahahaha. Right? Oh, wait. That's right...my child is...

TOO SMART FOR HIS OWN GOOD! As you can see, he has taken the magnetic key from the fridge, and is attempting to open the cabinet. Sigh. Thankfully, he isn't able to unlock it...yet. He is really trying to get around all of our baby-proofing efforts. We had to replace the outlet covers because he was taking the old ones out, he ripped down the gate that kept him out of the trashcan, he moves his little toddler ottoman over to Chris's closet (in the playroom), stands on it and tries to open the closet door, and he is currently trying to figure out exactly how to finagle the door in the steel gate at the top of the stairs. He keeps us on our toes, that is for sure! Oh yes! On Friday we were getting ready to go to Zona Rosa with Kristen and Hudson. I was in the laundy room getting dressed (hey! you do what you have to do when you have a maniac toddler!) and I noticed that it was pretty quiet. So, I look into the kitchen, and I see my child ON TOP OF THE KITCHEN TABLE. Correction, I see my child on top of our PUB HEIGHT kitchen table! He had climbed on a chair and then onto the table. After my heart started beating again, I swiftly removed my child and we left the house in hopes that he would forget about his new accomplishment.

Also, I have created a blog for J. Nichole Photography!! www.jnicholephotography.blogspot.com Head on over and check it out!

What a smart little guy you have on your hands! I've seriously considered putting a helmet on Addy "just in case" because she's always looking for something to climb!
