Belle's as smart as a chimp... Or is she?


Belle loves the squeeze mustard bottle. (Actually any container with a flip top she loves. Desitin, A & D ointment... Yuck!) I usually let her have it for a minute if she has managed to squeeze into the fridge behind an older child which is what happened today. Today she managed to insert a pen into the squeeze top and then took it out and licked the mustard off. She was just squatting on the floor focused on her new found skill enjoying the tasty mustard. As she did this, I pictured in my head a little chimp sittling at a termite mound fishing out termites with a stick!

Well, this evening, Emily took down a green glass ornament located out of Belle's reach from the tree. Belle found it... I saw her with it walking towards me and as I was coming to get it from her, she took a BITE out of it and started CRUNCHING it like a carrot!!! After a quick extraction of the glass pieces, she was more mad at me laying her on the counter and messing with her mouth than the pieces of the glass that had cut her tougue and her lip.

So now I'm not sure, is she a chimp or a goat?

She's totally fine. I think she'd even like seconds;)
