He's down with bronchitis again. But he's still jumping around.
Last night, I shut the child safe gate after I entered the kitchen. I opened the fridge to take out his medication.
The little ears perked up at the sound of the fridge opening and ran over. I hurriedly shut the door, knowing that the vacuum seal would be strong (is always hard to open the fridge again immediately after you've closed it).
The little fingers undid the catch to the gate (I so hate him figuring out how to!) and immediately tried to pry open the fridge too. I don't know from where he mustered the strength to, but he managed to open the fridge. I thought he would be distracted by the multitude of things in the fridge... but OH NO. He spots the small little packet of Mentos IMMEDIATELY. With a little squeal of delight, he slams the fridge shut, and runs out through the gate to protect his plundered prize. "I got swwwweettt!!!" he chants.
Well, how could I not reward him by opening the wrapper for him? haha...
This morning, he runs into my kitchen for a second go at the fridge...
ENOUGH I say!... it's time to buy a latch for the fridge door...
Then Daddy asks me this..."so how long do you think it'll take him to figure out how to undo the latch??"...
*faint*
