Why buy toys…. why?

I have conducted an experiment.  And the results have proven that my baby is indeed a super baby…   an astute observer.  .

Braxton loves remotes– what baby doesn’t?  It’s like the universal toy favored by babies.  So, we gave him one that goes to an old dvd player that we no longer use.  It’s his to have and play with and do whatever he wants with.  See?  Just as real as the one we use….

We use the black one.  We gave him the silver one.

BUT how funny….   he doesn’t want the silver one!  He only wants the one he sees us using.  So I figured that by pretending a couple times a day to use the silver one, point it at the tv every so often and press buttons, he would be fooled into thinking it’s real.  It did work for about five minutes, then…. back to wanting the black one and only the black one.

Look.  When both remotes are presented to him, which one does he chose?  Yup.  The one we don’t want him to use.  Of course!

Also, in the middle picture….  note the time on the cable box.  He had been up for an hour and a half already.  Since it’s Sunday, he let us ‘sleep in’.  Ha. ha. ha.

Hey, incidentally, look at what else he likes playing with:

Hmmmm.  I better keep him away from the computer before he starts online shopping.
