Day Of The Tub Stopper

Today Paprika discovered the tub stopper and has been infatuated with it ever since. She pulled it out of the drain while she was taking her bath this morning and will not let go. When I tried to take it away from her, she cried inconsolably. So, we took it everywhere with us today- to the mall, in the car- we even ate lunch with the tub stopper. It's her new best friend! I had to draw the line at her taking a nap with it, though- I didn't want her to choke on it. But it looks like this new friend isn't going anywhere anytime soon! Her favorite thing is when I dangle it over her head while she's laying on her back. She goes crazy with giggles. Now, why are we spending money on toys when the $1.99 tub stopper keeps her entertained for hours?
