Allison the Great


Look at this girl.  Totally cute and adorable.  She has the sweetest little voice and much to her dismay, I kiss her all day long.  She's sweet, she's funny, and she's.....destructive.

I just had to go to the bathroom.  It was only going to be a minute.  But when I came out I started to piece together the crime scene.  Somehow she had managed to knock over the baby monitor, play with my china, take several of the canned food jars down in the kitchen, play with my ipod and take the case off, dump a game out, and flush a bar of soap down the toilet.  It's like something goes off in her head, "Mom left the room, must do as much damage as possible."

I know every two year old is messy and destructive but Ally is my most deliberate one.  She once put toothpaste all over her sister's face while she slept and when she woke up screaming, she ran away laughing.

The other day, I told Ally she was a big girl and big girl's don't poop in their diapers. That day, she woke up from a nap and had a mischievous look on her face.  "Do you want Mommy to hold you-" "No!" she immediately responded.  Uh oh.  I knew something was up. She probably pooped in her diaper and didn't want me to hold her.

"Did you poopy?" I asked.  No answer.  I lifted up her dress to check her diaper and didn't find any poop.  In fact, I didn't even find a diaper. "Where's your diaper, Ally?"  She didn't have the nerve to answer.  She just pointed to her room.  As I stepped into her room I felt something warm and squishy between my toes. It felt about 98.6 degrees so I knew it was fresh.  I didn't even have to look down to make sure, I knew. "Allllllly!" I yelled.  Immediately tears and loud wails came from my adorable mischief.  It was hard to be mad when she was following my instructions to "not poop in her diaper."

God made this one adorable on purpose.
