Countdown to the Terrible Twos....

The Boy has an obsession.... pushing buttons. Day in and day out... The doorbell, the cd player, the buttons on the dvd player - and the TiVo, and the cable box, etc, ad infinitum...)


As a matter of fact, I took him to the Children's Museum today, and he spent a good chunk of time going up and down the stairs of the play build-a-house, and hitting the doorbell button... much to the chagrin of everyone else. (Me included!) Here's photographic evidence of such:





As irritating as Travis' button-pushing fetish can be...
it takes every fiber of my being not to bust out in laughter when he's caught red-handed. You see, my son was born with that innate, and hysterical instinct. You know the one, right?

Whenever I catch him opening the dvd player, and inserting a CD/DVD of unknown origin, he freaks out, has a look of unmistakable guilt flicker across his face, and in the same swift motion freaks out and flings said CD/DVD and hits the close button on the player. At 20 months. It's simultaneously freaking adorable, and unspeakably annoying. Yup. I am in for it. The terrible twos are here to stay. I have a feeling it's gonna be a bumpy ride!
