this is normal for most kids, but not mine.

Historically, any child of mine would never dream of attempting to push a big tupperware container to the counter and then climb up on it in order to reach forbidden things.

My first two girls, as toddlers, were not as gutsy or into mischief-making so I am still surprised whenever I turn around to find Claire doing something like this. She is making me step up my baby-proofing game.

Our big girl turns 17 months old tomorrow! She is so funny - this is the face she makes when I tell her to "smile".
