Attacking the Dishwasher

Just like her older siblings, Ella discovered the dishwasher a few months ago when she started crawling.  Whenever Ella sees the door is down, she seriously makes a beeline for it with turbo-crawling speed.  She goes straight for the large handled silverware in the basket which is normally the knives and has recently learned how to pull out plates, too.  I must admit that this is one of my least favorite activities of my babies (especially when the dishes are dirty), but we always seem to get through it unscathed...so far.  So, here are a few pictures of my dishwasher-diving baby that I took of her this morning.  Isn't she so cute?
