Jacey...you gotta love her!

Okay somedays I don't know what to do with my little princess, whom by the way I love with ALL my heart. I had a meeting the other day at someone's house. We were meeting in the living room and my cute Jacey was suppose to be sitting quietly in the family room/kitchen watching Dora. Yea right, I really should have known better. She walks into the living room looking like a powdered donut (probably a bit exaggerated but I knew she had done it again). Allie's formula (aka...powdered gold) was on the kitchen counter and I walk in to see it ALL over her floor and ALL over her kitchen counter. Not to mention she had gotten into her purse and thrown all her receipts and money on the floor.

Jacey is a dumper, she finds GREAT joy in dumping/emptying. She will dump out the clothes in her drawer, she will empty out all of the blocks in the bag, she will basically dump out ANYTHING that can be dumped or emptied. She has emptied her little tiny elastics numerous times. Perhaps I should go with her talent and foster it somehow. Any ideas?

I was going to suggest taking out the trash, but it looks like someone else already thought of that. Oh well, I'm sure you'll think of something. I couldn't help but laughing when I read your post. I'm sure you were embarassed at the time, but it's funny now right????
Keep the Jacey stories coming...I love them.

Oh no!! It's so hard when they start becoming "trouble." And then sadly, that never ends!!

maybe you could get her a sand box and bucket and teach her that she can fill it and dump it any time she wants to. She should come with carter the next time we have him over to play.

Okay I have to be honest I was there and it was so funny there really was formula everywhere! Jac is awesome she is curious and busy. I love it and you always take it so well. You are a very patient and a great Mom. Em’s advice is good. Feel free to use our sand box!!

Here we go.........

This is my first time blogging. I am officially a blogger, I guess. I am using that term VERY loosely right now. This is all very new to me. I sm still trying to learn how this all works. Wish me luck, as getting me this far has taken me much more time than I will ever admit! :)
