Growing Up

Oh how funny this was but I had to hide the laughter behind closed doors. Literally behind closed doors...Reese was in his room playing, or so I thought he was. I walked in and he was getting things out of his dresser. The forbidden drawer of his dresser that has diapers, wipes, dirty diaper garbage bags, powder, lotion, etc. He had his powder in his hand and it opened and powder was shooting out all over him and his feet. We got that all cleaned up no big deal. I told him no, not to get in the drawer and began to walk out of the room. I stood in his doorway and told him if he got into it again he would go to time out. He proceeded to do the unthinkable. He grabbed the door and proceeded to shut me out of his room. I let him shut the door and sat there for a min. He literally went back to the drawer and began digging through the stuff. I NEVER in a million years thought would do this at this age. WOW, do they learn fast or what!? I'm gonna have to bolt the door to where it will stay wide open. LOL! Oh and turn the knob to where the lock is on the outside. The other day he was in the room with me and he shut the door and began pushing on the lock. He didn't know what he was doing, he just thought it was a button and he should push it. What a smart little boy he has grown to be! All of these new milestones are amazing and I'm loving every one we hit (love to see it for the first time, not when he repeatedly does what he's not supposed to do). Anywho, just thought I'd share our interesting moment for the day. Here are some pictures...enjoy. HAHA!


Bye bye mom! Get out of my room "Peeeez" (please)
And since he loves to pretend to wipe and clean the furniture, walls, himself, the carpet, his toys, etc....why not let him clean it all with his bottle brush he got out of another cabinet. LOL! This was after he was swinging it like a bat. Daddy teaches him well. :)
