My little monkey is getting clever

Noah is starting to 'work the system'. He is getting really clever at trying to get himself out of trouble. Noah has worked out that if you do something naughty (i.e. smack Mummy in the face) and then follow it up with something good (i.e. thousands of kisses) then you usually won't get in as much trouble.

In this photo Noah had just poured about 20 litres (slight exaggeration) of bath water onto the floor. When I was trying to tell him off he kept putting his head under water to show me how good he was at swimming. He knows that I like him putting his head under as I think it is clever. When he came up he was clapping his hands as if to say how wonderful he was. He was shocked when I still continued to tell him off for the water on the floor.

Here Noeee is dragging away my ironing pile as I was trying to iron it. He had been pulling at my leg for over half an hour to go play with him. After ignoring him for a bit too long he must have thought "well I'll fix her; I'll steal the ironing."

Putting the ironing in the bath????? Not too sure what that was all about.

Last photo is of Noah playing the trumpet (aka: funnel for fuel)
