Mischief

mis·chief: (noun) conduct or activity that playfully causes petty annoyance. See also Noah Hill

Maybe I should think of him in this way instead...

cu·ri·os·i·ty: (noun) the desire to learn or know about anything; inquisitiveness.

Either way, my son is up to no good. :) Most moms would kill for some peace and quiet...but when it's quiet at my house that usually means Noah is into something (unless he's napping...oh, how I love naptime.)

Case in point:


Noah has a playroom FULL of toys...

But this is where he'd rather play! (When I walked in, he said "Bath!"...um, no son, not a bath.)



Poor Gabe...

Someday, you'll get him back!



At least it's all out of love...


A phrase commonly heard around our house..."Where's Noah?"

Where he's often found? In Gabe's bed....

...when Gabe is sleeping (or WAS sleeping as was the case in the pic below..)
He REALLY wants to be Oscar...ewwww


While mommy was getting ready, Noah pulled a new "dress" out of the drawer..

Poor dress hasn't had this much action since our honeymoon. ;)

Apparently bear has been getting into a little trouble himself...Noah put him in "Time out!"

The innocent victim...

This is only a sampling of Noah's little adventures...there are SO many more! Thankfully, most of the time they make me laugh (although not to where he can see...:)).

The other times--like when he dumps my water glass all over the living room (and yells "shower!") or decides to retrieve and open his own yogurt...all over the kitchen floor ("Uh oh, mommy--slippy!")--don't necessarily make me laugh, but at least he's not playing with knives. Gotta look on the bright side.

Well I am glad to know I don't have the only wild indians. Brian said last night he is glad our boys aren't meek and calm - why on earth not?!? Thanks for the heads up of what's to come in a year or so.
And the boys already love playing in my underwear/lingere drawer which also hasn't been pulled out since May 03.
