As the only female in the house with two little boys I'm very excited to know there is a little girl that will be joining our family. I'm sure this little girl will keep both of her big brothers on their toes when she arrives.
Isaac was very excited today since he'd finally be able to have a piece of the cake he helped make yesterday. While he had a small piece earlier in the day I had told him he couldn't have any more unless he finished his dinner, which he didn't do.
Once the boys were in bed I was working on laundry and started hanging pictures in our bedroom. While I was measuring I heard some clattering in the kitchen which was strange. Frazer had gone to Nashville for the evening to attend an alumni event at Vanderbilt University and I knew it was too early for him to be home.
I went down stairs to investigate and couldn't believe what I found. My clever boy, Isaac, had snuck passed my bedroom door and made his way downstairs. He went and got the step stool, moved it to the counter so he could open the cabinet door and helped himself to a small plate. Then he opened the silverware drawer and selected a proper cake fork.
Next, he went to the kitchen table and removed the glass dome from the cake pedestal and cut himself a piece of cake. He was thoroughly enjoying himself. The entire situation caught me off guard. On one hand I couldn't believe a two year old was capable of such shenanigans however with Isaac I should have known better. On the other hand, he was so precise and careful it was kind of impressive despite the fact he was supposed to be in bed.
Isaac wasn't happy when I interrupted his late night snack. It took some convincing to give up his piece of cake to save it for tomorrow and get him back in bed.
