Well, that kid is into everything. He has colored my grout with crayon. I guess I should be happy to have rainbow grout, but it frustrates me. And my belly is so big that I have a hard time getting down and scrubbing, so it will just have to wait. He has gotten into the fireplace that I thought was clean because we don't have fires in it and managed to get soot all over the carpet. I meant to get out the carpet cleaner or even spot clean the areas, but reason after another reason has kept me from that. And he has colored all over my walls. My children NEVER have colored my walls. If they did, it happened once and I made sure they realized they should not even think about doing it again.
Nothing fazes Nathan 
and he repeatedly colors my 
walls. I have tried everything, even 
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser won't take the marker off. And then the lock. Mr Nathan can unlock the front door and go out. Not a good thing with a 1 year-old. So, we replaced the lock with a new lock that only can be opened with a key. And guess what that little guy figured out? How to unlock it with the key. SO, we have the key hung up out of reach to where the older kids can reach it but to where Nathan cannot.
That little guy is one handful. He is so cute and fun to watch and play with, but my, my house is paying for it. I have survived 4 children before Nathan and have never experienced anything like him. And I am having another boy. Three boys! Spencer is sweet and kind and gentle. Nathan is just as Evan described, "A bull in a China shop" Oh, I love that little guy, which is why he has survived!

Or the toothpaste smeared into the carpet in the hallway? The dent in the wall from his head as he jumped off the couch?

Oh little Nathan. I think he and my Kate are the boy/girl versions of each other. :) It makes me smile to read about his antics only because I can completely relate!
I love your blog banner..not sure when you put it up there, but it's awesome!
