No, Jonah!

As Jonah becomes more and more independent, he thinks it is fun to "test" us these days. There is a decorative tree with moss in the living room that Jonah loves to pull out. After saying, "No, Jonah, no" about a hundred times last week, he turns around to me and says pretty clearly, "No, no, no" back. Haha! I had to mark the moment when he first talked back to me (I am sure there will be many more times....). I finally put a plastic bag around the base of the tree so I could stop saying "no" all the time. Then, on Monday, Jonah discovered another decorative plant in our bedroom. My sister captured this shot....

I guess I have more baby proofing to do.

I'm cracking up, especially at the "caught red handed" picture! I can't wait to see you both on Saturday, Mel :-)

hahaa!!! landon gets that stuff out of our plants too! I've found out that sometimes it's just easier to remove whatever they keep touching rather than fighting the battle over and over and over. Miss you guys and can't wait till the party!

Yes, I feel your pain and your repeated "no"...Ryann is obsessed with fake plants too.

The brown shoes are from Stride Rite and the tennis shoes are from Target. Crazy how fast they grow!
