That's my new favorite sentence. I am amazed by some of the things I let Court play with just to keep her quiet, while I take a shower, do the dishes, make her breakfast, fold the laundry, etc...
It's getting harder and harder to keep her entertained because she's just so darned curious and active. And it's getting harder to say no to her when she wants something she's not supposed to have, because she'll throw herself on the ground or give you puppy eyes and say "Pweeessee!" It kills me.
My husband gets so mad at me, because I will let her play with my $20 MAC makeup brushes to clean out the lint from the wall fan, or let her unwrap all of my tampons, take every Q-Tip out of the bin and put them back, take all the DVD's off the shelf and open them, open and close the bathroom louvre doors a million times during a rousing game of peekaboo, put on all of my plastic bracelets, but baby powder on the dog...really anything to keep her quiet for just a little while. I know it's not a good idea, and I will pay for it later, but I say not to any of the real "dangerous" things she wants to do!
Here's a pic of her during one of her favorite pasttimes, taking all of her clothes out of the drawer and putting them on Gamma's head! Look at the evil in her eyes.
