Toddler Hoarding

family

This little girl likes to do funny things.  For one, she likes to draw on this tiny little shelf…not the table.  I’ve always noticed, though, that tiny people like to do things in tiny places.  It makes them feel big.  It feels good to “not fit” sometimes.

You may wonder, though, what we might be feeding her for her stomach to be so oddly shaped.

This funny girl has figured out a way to keep her favorite cars out of reach from her big brothers.  As the little one, she’s learned how to hold her own…by holding it in her onesie.

Most especially, her precious pink monster-truck that she got from Great-grandma for Christmas.  She doesn’t like her brothers touching her pink monster-truck.  She likes to race alongside them, and smash other cars with the best of them.

You see, when it comes to keeping possession of toys, this toddler has it all figured out.

    Adorable! My 3-year-old likes to be in small spaces too…and do things anywhere but where he’s supposed to 😉 She’s so clever to figure out how to carry her stuff! I believe every little girl should have a truck.

    I didn’t know that the gift of a monster truck would be so special to Solveig and Micaila! They were so tickled to have their very own trucks!
