Whatcha Gonna Do About This?

Gabby is starting to be defiant—yes my sweet little baby. She’ll watch me out of the corner of her eye as she stands in a chair, opens a cabinet, or takes my books off the shelves. It’s so interesting to watch her starting to test her boundaries. She’s trying to see what is accepted, frowned upon, and out right against the rules. She’s learning to move questionable behaviors out of the room where I am, so she’s less likely to get caught. At fifteen months of age she’s already being sneaky. With this, she’s starting to learn the consequences of her actions both natural and imposed. It’s a fun stage as she tests the waters, but isn’t trying to be outright deceitful yet—I’m sure well get there though.
