For Future Reference

19 Jan

When it’s too quiet, and Jack is out of view, it probably means that he is playing with eggshells.

Cute, but gross.

Or maybe it means that he is using his newly developed problem solving skills to figure out the problem of how to reach those Christmas decorations on the table.

If he’s out of view, but he’s not quiet, this has most likely happened:

Look at that hand reaching out for help while I take a picture! Sorry, Jack.

And, although it may look like Jack is helpfully trimming the tree in this picture from our Christmas card this year, he’s actually picking ornaments off the tree, wondering why we got a tree inside the house and covered it with toys.

What is that saying? Oh yeah, toddlers are the spice of life.

(Disclaimer: Jack was not harmed in any of these photos, nor was he before or after they were taken. His hands were washed of egg, his step stool was moved to a safe and obscure location, he wasn’t really stuck under the table, he just didn’t know how to get out, and all the breakable ornaments were kept on the top half of the tree.)

    Super cute and funny. A few things I wondered…

    1) Have you ever heard of the Bird Flu?
    2) Who painted the trim in your dining room? Super job!
    3) What would one do in the first place to get one’s head stuck under a piece of furniture?
    4) How was your Christmas?
