I refer to Kate as our own Tiny Tornado- a title that she lives up to every single day. She is into EVERYTHING all the time. She loves to empty any container, drawer, backpack, purse, etc. and throw the contents all over the floor. She loves to climb. She loves to push buttons. She loves to drag blankets and table clothes into rooms on the opposite end of the house where she found said objects. She is, quite frankly, a holy terror. Most of the time I can make my peace with it- she is after all- only a one year old. But the other night- I had finally had enough. She dumped the contents of my purse on the floor and when I tried to stop her, she tried to bite me. So I put her in time out. I don't know how effective it was- other than it REALLY made her mad- but she settled down a little bit after that- so maybe she was just stunned that we did something other than just tell her no. I hate disciplining.
Anyway- she was so mad that it was kind of cute as she sat there in her little corner- so I snapped a couple pictures... Too bad these don't really do her mad face justice- in fact, she looks relatively calm here... Maybe I'll get a better one next time (because inevitably there WILL be a next time).

Oh, you horrible mother! Look at that sad face?! It is so hard to discipline. Especially to discipline effectively. Good luck with this next stage! :)
Hey baby cakes. Grandma will save you. Kisses, grandma
