The future Johnny Knoxville?

MZ's new favorite thing is chucking all her toys down the stairs. And since our housekeeping method is organized around what we charitably call "staging areas," she chucks our toys down the stairs, too. Shoes were first, but our big shoes tend to get stuck on a step about half-way down, which is a real buzz kill.

Ever-resourceful, she's discovered that the stars and circles in her blocks set get better speed than the squares or triangles. Her stacking cups are usually good for the whole trip to the next landing, with a satisfying bounce at the end. And nothing beats the knobbly balls we have all over the house.

We fear that with a little more hoisting strength and attention span, we're on our way to a baby segment on Jackass.
