The Mind of a 2 yr Old Boy

We’ve always known Cooper is a handful.  It started at a young age.  I think this post was about the time we knew we were in for it.  We are now outsmarted by a 2 yr old.

Hmmm….I need to get out of my room, but that darn baby gate is in the way.  Maybe if I go over it?  Well that might hurt my butt if I fall.  What can make it softer?  Clothes!  Look at all the clothes in these drawers!  I’ll just throw them over the gate and it will make a nice soft landing for me!

I want to go for a drive.  I’ll be super quiet so mommy and daddy don’t hear me when I open the door.  Hey look, mommy’s car door is unlocked!  Here I go driving!  I just need to get the garage door open.  Oh, look, what does this button do?  Wow, it opens the garage door!  I have to show Charlotte and Scout!  Hurry, come look!  Let’s go out front and play!

I want some gum.  I know mommy and daddy keep it up high.  I just need to push the chair over and then I can reach.  Okay the chair is here, but what shelf did they put it on?  Oh, found it!  Hurry, hurry, get down and RUN before mommy sees me!

Open, push down.  Nope that didn’t work.  What are these things anyhow?  Why do mommy and daddy insist on keeping me out of the cupboards.  Okay, let’s try again.  Open, but not all the way.  Okay now push down and pull the door open.  Yay!  It worked.  Wow, look at all these goodies!  The spray bottle!  Now I can clean for mommy.  I’ll just spray some on the dishwasher, and on the floor, and on the window.  She love that I was helping.  And trash bags, look at the trash bags!  This will be perfect to put my soccer ball in!
