Mischief, Mischief...

I decided to compose a post of some of the pictures that I have of Carson causing mischief. These are stories that I want to be able to remember later so I figure if I blog them then they will be permanently recorded! With Carson if he's quiet it usually means he's getting into mischief and that means get the camera first and then go see what he's up to!

In this picture he had got the Q-tips out of the bathroom and decided to throw them all over the family room floor and coffee table. I walked into the room with him sitting there playing with them, and of course he had his sippy just incase he got thirsty! The computer desk has always been a facination for Carson and no matter what room the computer is in or how high it is or how far away a chair is, he will always find a way to get to it!

The bathroom is another favorite place for Carson. If we ever leave the door open and unchild locked for any reason he will run in there at top speed, climb on the toilet to get into the sink and then proceed to get his toothbrush and toothpaste out. I have found him many times in this exact place. I guess on the one hand I should be happy that he wants to take care of his teeth!
Carson loves to play with the buckles in his high chair, carseat, stroller etc. Whenever we tell him that it is time to eat he will run and climb on the chair then shimmy across the table and put his head into the chair to "buckle" it. Often times he will not sit down to eat until the buckles are exactly the way he wants them.
This is Carson's idea of "helping" dad. This is a cabinet in our kitchenette downstairs. Jake had taken out the drawers to put in outlets and Carson ran in saying "help me" which means he wants to help and crawled inside the cabinet to help. I guess all he needs now is a screwdriver and he can get those hard to reach screws in the very back for us!
Carson loves to play with the laundry baskest, which wouldn't be a problem except that he usually wants to play with them after the basket is completely full with folded clothes. He will dump everything out and then get inside the basket to play. This time it looks like he enlisted his brother to be a part of his mischief team.
Carson has ears like a hawk when Marcus wakes up from a nap. I can sometimes tell because I will hear Carson yelling "baby!" from all the way across the house as he runs top speed to go "get him". Or sometimes I will go in and see that Carson has beat me there and is in the crib with Marcus. That's his idea of "getting him". I guess he figures that Marcus needs some company until I come get him.This one happens to me at least 4 times a day. I get a tupperware out, I turn around to get whatever it is I am putting in the tupperware and then by the time I get ready to put it in the tupperware, Carson has it and is running away from me with it on his head! For some reason he thinks they are all hats! In this picture Jake is trying to get him and he is running around the table to get away. Although I sometimes get frustrated with his little mischievious acts, I have to admit that it makes me laugh. He is so full of energy and curiosity and loves to explose and I love that about him. And hey, it makes for some really great pictures! :)
