What is the fascination

with TV remotes and cordless phones?  We had to dig out one that is not connected to any device to keep Michael away from the real ones.  It is not like he knows to hit the buttons.  He just wants to chew on them.

Miller loves the remotes and the cordless phone!  He will actually climb on DH to get to the remote that DH puts out of his reach.   We bought him his own FP cell phone for Christmas, and he loves it but still wants the real one too!

At first Aaron only wanted to chew on them. Now he actually knows the remote turns on the TV and changes channels.  He likes the TV WAY too much. Oy vey!

And he takes our cordless phone and puts it on his shoulder and says "HOLA!" (yes, he says hello in Spanish and also prefers agua to water). He once hit redial and called my inlaws.

Out of all the toys we put in front of DD she will still reach for the remotes or cell phones if they are in sight.  I'm ready to find my old cell phone, clean it, and let her play with it!

Leah is the same way.  But don't forget to add keyboards and the computer mouse to the list.  She got hold of the remote the other night and screamed bloody murder when we took it away.  What mean parents she has.

Soon he will figure out that he only wants the remote you use!

We tried the old remote trick also. It worked for a week or so. He may only want to chew on it now, but watch out, he is taking very careful notes and will figure the buttons out soon enough!

Ada takes a direct course to whatever is the most valuable and/or most dangerous thing in the room. We put the remotes all up out of her reach - she can't tell the difference between the fake one and the real ones...
