My Wonderful Little Terror...

I thought, since I was pondering the miracle of my littlest girlie today, that I would just give a quick recount of her recent mischievous actions :) As each day passes, her "I didn't do it" and "I'm cute, but dangerous!" faces are making more frequent appearances. To summarize what I am talking about, this ALL happened yesterday...

the morning begins WITH...

the removal of a #2 filled pull-up (for the millionth time this week) and by removal I unfortunately do not mean by me or with even a shred of my knowledge

and then progresses to...

a quick trip to the bathroom for ME and a sneaky relocation of the kitchen stool, mounting of the kitchen countertop, removal of every spice from the spice rack & pouring and sloshing of expensive olive oil onto the newly cleaned floor for AUTUMN

and finally ends at...

a purposeful "watering" of the bathroom rug in an attempt to "communicate" dissatisfaction of a much needed tubby AND a revengeful "reorganization" of every clothing item from her dresser drawers in an attempt to "communicate" her disapproval of bedtime.

SIGH...good thing she is so darn adorable and I remembered to have my quiet time ( in which I sovereignly listened to http://www.covlife.org/resources/2671419-The_Lord_Is_In_Your_Boat ) that day!! :) Oh Lord, grant all of us mommies with crazy second born children, MUCH grace and patience, AMEN.

Amen, and amen, and AMEN!!!

The other day I turned around in the car to see Julia giving a THOROUGH licking to the bottom of her crocs. And then later on I went outside to find her dumping the ENTIRE 5 lb. bucket of bubbles all over their toy bin and the patio.

Right there with you, friend. =)

Or mischievous first borns! Yesterday, within the span of two hours, Kate emptied the entirety of her dresser onto the bedroom floor, cleaned her potty seat with her toothbrush,proceeded to dump LIFE cereal on the newly vacuumed couch and then crush the pieces - not once, not twice but THREE times! Oh, and for Sena,licking shoes, that's a regular occurrence around here!
