So Far:

Telephone Line (Pulling on wires along the floor/wall)

Heater Thermostat (Pushing buttons and pulling on unit)

Telephone (Removed Antenna)

Cellphone (Banging/hiding/knocking)

And they're just a year old.... Rolling Eyes

my 1 year old waterlogged and broke my cellphone because she got a hold of it and chewed and drooled on it too much.

when she was only 5 months old she broke my sil's cellphone too. she has a track record.

The title says "your child" not toddler. I imagine the amother is talking about a teenager. So sorry, amother Sad

countless mirrors, glasses, serving bowl from a set, 2 glass vases [gifts from the older kids] - you name it. When we have company over with kids and thy're nervous about their child breaking things, I tell them, if it's breakable, it's already been taken care of!

(well, it's not all one kid)

we would call my second son "the plumber" because he stuffed the toilet up so many times when he was 2 2-1/2years old .

Oh, talk about toilet paper getting flushed down...
Try this- put the end of the paper into the toilet and flush. The whole roll will unwind and go down the drain with the water. Wheeeeee! Fun!

I'm sorry, amother. You probably wish your child could be breaking everything around your house now. Sad

My boys wonder about me sometimes...
Whenever I act weird, my little 1.5 year old looks scared and cries, "Mama!Mama!" until I stop. Twisted Evil

she grabbed a business card from my hand - in front of the guy who had just given it to me! she started started biting and tearing it until it was totally destroyed. I was fascinated by the process and didn't try to save it - when my husband realized, it was too late. The guy gave another card, to dh.

She grabbed a fancy pen from a banker's hand and threw it on the floor. It was not destroyed but it needed some put back together!

what else... oh yeah, she tears posters from my room's wall!
