Sneaky Little Devil.....

Little Gavin is growing and learning so much EVERY day!! One thing he has recently discovered is that there are usually lots of awesome things on top of the counters and tables. And, if he stands just right on those little tippy toes, he can reach things if they are left close enough to the edge. It's really cute to watch him hold on to the edge of the counter or table peering over the top trying to see if there is anything worth reaching for.

This morning Devin had about 1/3 of a piece of left-over toast on his plate at the table. He just so happened to leave it close enough to the edge for Gavin to see it. Devin and I were in the living room and Gavin was running around the house exploring. All of the sudden I heard Gavin's "evil laugh". (This is something else he has started doing that I plan on getting on video. He does this when he gets something he knows he's not supposed to have or when he sees someone bringing him a really good snack, such as goldfish.) He comes walking into the living room holding this piece of toast like it's a brand new crisp $100 bill. I said "GAVIN!" in a stern voice and he looked up at me and shoved that entire piece of toast in his mouth as fast as he could and darted down the hallway. I couldn't help but laugh at that little booger and I chased him down the hallway to dig that piece of toast out of his mouth. Reminds me how big he's getting and how is obviously knew I was going to take it away! Needless to say..... he wasn't very happy when I got it out of his mouth!
