What I’ve noticed recently about Isaac is that, well, toddlers do the strangest things. They not only do strange things, they act strangely. They want to cuddle and kiss and are cute one minute, the next they are screaming their heads off. Then, they are dragging you by your pinky finger around the house as if they are on a mission. A mission for….what? I have no idea. Then, they are sitting quietly in their room “reading” while you fill the dishwasher, water the wilting plants and throw in some laundry. And when I say, “they” I mean Isaac.
water in the bucket
Apparently, and this might not be unique to toddlers, they love to fill buckets with water immediately on arriving to the beach. And then they will promptly dump it out once they settle back to their spot.
Again, by they, I mean Isaac.
over-watering the tomato plants
Speaking of water, toddlers like to water the same tomato plan over and over, just to make sure it’s not thirsty anymore.
"more, more!"
Toddlers need more water from the ocean once they dump out the first bucket of water they just got.
"you mean, the tomato plant doesn't need more water?"
Toddlers give you a confused look when you remind them that the tomato plant will die if you hydrate it any more.
he's sure he can fit in this
Toddlers (read: Isaac) try to get into wagons that are not meant to be squeezes into.
still watering the tomatoes
Toddlers don’t hear you the first or second time.
He needs a shoe horn
Toddlers are determined to get what they want.
time for the big guns
Toddlers finally get the picture about the tomato plants and move on to bigger and better things.
"see Mama, I fit just fine"
Toddlers believe they are always right.
of course, more water
And of course, toddlers need more water from the ocean after they continue to immediately dump out the previous bucket of water.
"it's not me that's strange, it's you!"
And of course toddlers often point right at the camera when you take a picture.
And by toddlers, I mean Isaac.
