What random thing drives your LO crazy?

So I put up this whole "treetop friends" decal collage above our changing table, and right by where DS's head is during a change are these two innocent looking orange flowers. They're about five inches tall and look like the flowers from the original super Mario brothers. I have no idea why, but when DS's little eyes focus on those flowers he Loses. His. Friggin. Mind. Like, squealing, screeching, smiling, arms flailing, feet kicking, absolute pure heavenly bliss. Like the reaction you might expect from a pubescent teenage boy if the Dallas cowboys cheerleaders just lined up in front of him and took off their tops. No clue why.

What random seemingly innocuous item gets your LO going? I hear ceiling fans are popular?

  • Washing her face... But it is the angry crazy, not happy crazy. She absolutely hates anything that touches her eyes and forehead as if i am ripping her eyes out.
  • Happy crazy? Our ceiling fan. Or more specifically, the moving shadow made by the ceiling fan. In her crankiest moments, it never fails to crack a smile on her face.

  • The bath and when I use a super high voice and say "Good morning little boy!" In a super high shrill voice. He also gets jacked up happy at The Chica Show on Sprout.

  • I just bought two finger puppet books: one is a lion the other a giraffe. He goes nuts grabbing at those puppets! He could play with those for hours and sometimes we do!

    I was going to buy him this today!
    H LOVES playing peek a boo. I'll put a blanket over his face and pull it away and he goes bananas. He also loves anything that makes noise. His wrist rattles, sock monkey lovey, and play gym. Oh and when he is super hungry and is about to get a boob he smiles so big and kicks his little legs. Bad crazy is a poopy diaper and being stationary.

  • @ElTrain5‌ @jennyd321 My 2 year old still plays with it. The music is actually not annoying!
  • I love the take away tunes too but wish it had an extended play setting instead of having to press the button after every short song. I stared at it for a while trying to figure out if it was in testing or display mode. I have one for the diaper bag / car and one for homie. I agree that the songs aren't super annoying, it's a great value toy for the money.

  • She likes the bath, her own reflection, getting into the car, midnight, having her clothes removed, the projector component of the TV, my phone, and two paintings in our house. She is enraged by jazz, Jon Stewart, having clothes put on her, and DH's phone.

  • The keys hanging from a mirrored key hook. They move from the a/c vent and she loves them. She started "chatting" with them very early in age.

  • Mine loves looking at herself in the bathroom mirror, she smiles and kicks when I hold her up to it. She also gets excited to see the alphabet animal cards I have hanging behind her changing table and likes to kick/grab the "vulture" one that's within her reach when she's laying there.
  • Anything he can kick. He's going to have ridiculously strong legs. He likes looking at himself, lights, the TV and the ceiling fan.

  • The ceiling fan! She's absolutely obsessed. She also loves this mobile I made out of fake flowers and crystals.

  • Songs with hand motions like "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "Head and shoulders..."

    She loved the Take Along Tunes, but unfortunately we lost it on our trip. She also loves Violet (by Leapfrog). Basically anything that plays music and lights up!
  • The ceiling fan, when we go into her room and open the curtains in the morning and tell her "good morning" and her bumble bee mobile. She's also starting to love her reflection.

  • He loves any ceiling fan and if it is not running he will stare at it with a concerned/concentrating face like "how do I make it move".  He LOVES when DH says the alphabet to him in a silly voice and baths. Oh, how he loves a bath; we've got a water baby for sure!

     

  • Bad crazy - DD1 just learned to growl like a bear and if she does it anywhere around DD2, she makes an instant pouty face and starts to cry like she is terrified.

  • Happy crazy- her reflection and the Good Morning song. She loves the plant behind our couch. It slays makes her smile and she talks to it.

    Irate- Washing her face, cleaning ears, and laying her down where she can't are anything.

  • Last week DH discovered that Elijah LOVES a popping sound DH makes with his mouth. He literally laughed and squealed with pleasure for 10 mins while DH made a song of it
  • DS loves the ceiling fan, a projector we use at night that has stars, and the mobile we have on his crib.  Gets into a sort of zone and refuses to look at anything else.  He is also obsessed with anything that makes a crinkley noise.
