STINKER

For those of you close to our family you will know that our middle child, has the nickname "Stink"...which came from us always calling him stinker when he was "little" (not because he stinks in general :))  Anyway, we have a new stinker in the family...she happens to be our "little bug".  We've always called her "little bug" or "cutie bug"...well we may have to change her name to "stinker".  It seems she is always into something.  I'm sure the boys were at this age too, but it's been a long time since they were at this stage and our house isn't quite as baby-proofed as it was for them apparently.  The picture above is just one example of her messes that she loves to make.  She also pulls out ALL of the plastic containers from the kitchen cabinet...checks out all of the canned goods (by taking them out and setting them in the middle of the floor)...cleans out my sock and underwear drawer...inventories her toybox (or dumps it..all in how you look at it) and her most recent trick that the picture doesn't do justice...this is after we have picked them all up and "let" her play with this amount....she is an AVID reader...she pulls out all of the books of her interest to look at randomly all over her room! :)  She is a busy body and cute as a bug...well, I don't think bugs are generally cute, so she's as cute as any little girl I've ever seen...but she is definitely a STINKER!!!!!!!!!
