This guy...


is giving us a run for our money these days...opening every cupboard, pulling on every table cloth, emptying every purse, snagging every item of food (or any item that remotely resembles food) off the ground, unrolling every roll of toilet paper he can find, climbing on every elevated surface, squealing for joy, shrieking when mad, crying hysterically when sleepy, but cuddly as a snuggle bunny when he wants it:)  Oh 16 months, I really and truly believe that THIS is a busiest age of them all.  I love you Gusto.  When I was a camp counselor at Covenant Harbor we played a game on the big field every week throughout the summer called "Go for the Gusto" and this little man has completely revolutionized my understanding of that phrase.  At every waking moment, we are "Going for the Gusto" around this house:)
