Derek is such a funny little monkey, and very much like a little ferret at the same time.  He has this thing where he will scatter things throughout the entire house – it's not just toys from the bedroom in the bedroom, or pans in the kitchen, it is stuff from every room of the house in every other room in the house.  What results are these little piles all over the place.  Piles with things taken out of bathroom drawers, stuff from my desk, toys from Lily's bedroom and the living room, utensils smuggled out of the kitchen, and things from our closet or our dresser drawers.  It's like solving a mystery just trying to clean up after him.  Silly boy!

Another way Derek has been getting into trouble, is that he has finally really mastered climbing – I have been dreading this day!  Last week Kevin had his laptop on the kitchen table, and with me sitting on the chair next to it, Derek made his break for it anyway.  He climbed onto the chair, and from the chair to the table before I could blink.  It's time to baby proof again :).  Here's a picture of him taking advantage of Lily leaving her play-doh unattended.  Too bad he is so cute when he is causing trouble :), especially with his messy hair from his nap.
