The Logic of Riley

Riley now has the wonderful toddler mentality of "If I don't see mommy, mommy doesn't see me." So......"If mommy says 'no' to something, just go to a place where you can't see mommy and then do it again." He does take it up a notch and peaks around the corner or wherever he has hidden to make sure that I haven't moved and that what he is doing is still a secret.

I was doing laundry today and had all of his items folded neatly in his basket. I was cleaning up after his bath and saw that he was trying to throw the clothes out of the basket. I told him "no" and he stopped. Then he drags the basket a little ways into his room and figures he is safe. But, just to make sure he peaks around the corner to make sure I'm not coming. Cute now, but my mind fast forwards to the coming years and I dread what he will try to be sneaky about in the future. Scary thoughts!!!

Also, we have made the discovery that our finger just so happens to fit right into our nostrils. Awesome!!!

Wow, that's quite an impressive thought process! Even though his actions are less than desirable, ya have to applaud that little brain of his! I don't envy your job of having to say "no" when he's being so damned cute. :)
