the little

oh, my little.....she's givin her Mama a few new grays & maybe even the occasional heart palp.  I've said before that I totally thought I'd have a handle on things....you know by adding a toddler to our fam.  I'm good with toddlers - my other 2 made it into pre-teen hood with little scrapes. But Piper...oh baby girl, you are my challenge (maybe a little too much like me?).  She's turned into quite the climber which my other two never did.  She amazed me a year ago by learning to climb up the kitchen cabinets - really, like she'd grab the counter & walk her feet up.  Last night when we put her to bed & she came walking in our room holding something off her tall dresser we had no clue how she had gotten the little trinket down.  "I show you Mama" - and show me she did....she climbed from her bed, onto her nightstand, reached across & put it back.  Today she decided swan dives from the chair to the couch were a great idea. 

She also thinks she's totally hilarious - she put on some of Chloe's deo & asked me to "smell my armpit, Mama"
when I asked her why she put on Chloe's deoderant she said "cause my armpit's so stinky.....pee-yew!" followed by giggles
"hey, why's you taking pictures of me?"
"cause you think I gorgeous?"

Yes, Miss Piper, because you ARE so gorgeous! (Maybe you should wait a while to tell her that she really IS hilarious!) Sounds like a room rearrangement is in order! Good luck!

I can relate...my first two were easy, calm...and then K showed up! She tries my patience and cracks me up. When she was a toddler, she got into everything -things we'd never needed to worry about with the other two, she was all over them! I often remind myself that there is never a dull moment with her around!
