Sharin' the Loot

By now Leo and I have realized that Isabella is a true loot lover.

I continue to find little treasures in the strangest places. I honestly think she has forgotten about a majority of this loot because when I find it and marvel at how we have found the long lost comb, toothpaste, toothbrush, etc her whole face lights up like it's the greatest gift she's ever received.

Anyway, the other day I gave her a bunch of plastic kitchen utensils for her kitchen that we already have. She was so excited! (Nevermind that she just spent a good while screaming and throwing them around the living room...for reasons unknown to me...)

She then decided to share her loot with our cat, Boo. Boo was sleeping in her corner of the loveseat. I say her corner because if anyone dares to sprawl out on the loveseat to watch tv she'll sit on the floor and stare at you....and stare at you.

Isabella took this opportunity to pile all of her loot around Boo....kind of like a fort. It was piled so high we could barely see poor Boo. But Boo took it like a champ and continued to lay there while the loot piled up. She had kitchen utensils, stuffed animals, books, tea sets, and random toys.

Isabella was satisfied that Boo didn't try to move the entire time and I was happy that you could see our living room floor again. It was a win-win situation for us all!

Until Boo got up (maybe an hour later) and Isabella realized that her beloved cat had left her fort. Toys, books, loot were suddenly thrown everywhere along with a little girl yelling the entire time.

I seriuosly love this age Bella is at--her temper cracks me up and how she deals with her frustrations seriously makes me laugh sometimes....next time will be caught on video!

Baby Got Treasure

After dinner tonite I decided to have a snack.

A yummy Rice Krispy Treat. Store bought, not Chellemade.

Anyway, Bella and I were sharing it and she picked up the empty wrapper after it was gone.

She looked at me with concern in her eyes and "asked" me (in so many words) where'd it go?

I told her it was all gone and gave her a kiss.

She then looked at the wrapper in her hand, and stuffed it on the side of our recliner.

What-in-the ??

Very clever, I thought.

After she went to bed, I was laughing so hard telling Leo how are baby girl can "throw" away the trash.

He was on the couch, we both looked at each other with the same, uh-oh look.

He reached down and pulled out the following items:

-flashlight
-Dora fruit snacks, Dora wrappers
-a tube of Neosporin (how did that get there?!)
-crackers

We will now be tearing apart each and every couch cushion this weekend and cleaning out the loot.

I gotta hand it to her...that was pretty clever!
