Keeley received some bath toys from Uncle Kendall and Angie. They are the squirty kind and she has three - Cookie Monster, Ernie, and Elmo. Keeley is a bit obsessed with Elmo right now - in particular the Elmo on her diapers and a song on one of her cds. This obsession made the Elmo squirt toy an instant hit with her.
Tonight she picked him up, held him tight, and said "keep" as we were getting out of the bath. I didn't see the harm in letting her keep him so we went to the changing table to get her ready for bed. She was on her back while I was putting on her diaper when she lifted Elmo up over her head and said "Elmo". She then said "squirt" and squeezed him. Just as she commanded, Elmo squirted - right into her eye. She quickly sat up, covered her eye, and said "eye".
Cause and effect. Such a great teacher!
