Our Little Rebel

We have a house full of toys. Our living room is already inundated with an exersaucer, a tiny tot kitchen, a music box, and an activity table. There are "go to" toys that I pull out in the kitchen to keep her entertained: a basket full of bibs, a container full of cookie cutters, a set of stacking cups. Her bedroom includes a pile of stuffed animals, and there is a shelf with organized baskets of linking beads, rattles, linking rings, and squirty toys.

Yet lately Cora's "favorites" are those things that she really isn't supposed to play with.

Here is some proof:

 A hair brush (OK, so this one is technically OK for her to play with, but she loves when she is able to get her hands on my hairbrush, and she has already started to pull-up on the drawers in our master bath, reaching in for my things while I am getting ready.

The recycle bag. Here, I stocked the bag with items she could safely play with and let her have at it.

 Our sneakers. She loves our sneakers.

Anything from a kitchen. Here, we were over for dinner at Anne & Dave's. I committed a "Mommy Failure" and didn't pack anything to contain Cora while we ate (like her Bumpo seat). Anne came up with a way to strap Cora to a dining room chair - she loved her perch!

Landon has had nightmares over this one!

The kitchen chairs. They slide with her, but yet she keeps going back to them.

Her car seat. She loves to play with the straps on her car seat.

Yumm Goodness!!! She loves to eat sand!

Grass and leaves.

One of the big problems is that she has a heck of a grip. We call this the "Sneaker Rodeo".
