My Mischievous Baby M

We were all hanging out in the living room when big sister K went upstairs to use the bathroom.  Baby M, being the curious fellow he is, followed her upstairs but went to his room instead.  When she was done, I told her to turn off all the lights on her way down in hopes of getting him downstairs, since he couldn't reach for the light switches himself.  Needless to say, it didn't work.  I assumed he was sitting upstairs in the dark, but after a few minutes, I heard him yell out "look at me," so I did and to my surprise, the light in his room was turned on.

This is what he did: First, he stood on a potty chair (which is used more as a toy than a potty chair) to reach for the light switch.  When that didn't work, he went to the bathroom, took the stool we have in there, and tried using that, only to find that he was still inches too short.  Then he took the garbage can in his room (fortunately, it was empty), flipped it upside down, and stood on it to reach for the light switch.  Jackpot!  He was so proud of himself (as was I) for having succeeded.  It's amazing what goes through the head of this two-year old!
