Violet Says - Carry a Box


V fell asleep before telling her story *wink, wink*. 
Here's the deal. We've had this box since Sunday and it is her new favorite "thing". She loves it so much that when we were preparing to leave the house she picked it right up for the journey.
She held on to it and for most of our park visit.
I wonder if people passing by wondered what was up with "the box" or just already knew it's just a toddler being a toddler.

What's the strangest "toy" your little one ventured out with?

The house phone. We don't use it but for some reason she is smitten with it. I tried giving her an old cell phone of mine but its just not as good as the house phone. Babies are funny that way. For weeks after Christmas she played with the boxes

She will be strong and fit carrying boxes around, haha. I can't remember what the strangest thing Jayden tried to take out of the house. Hmm. *thinks hard*

Look at how cute she is with her box :) I love her! She is really growing. One time I had a kid wear a pair of underwear on his head to the park. Oh and Daniel always has to grab something anytime we go out in his stroller, his rolling backpack even if we're not going to school, anything... One time we walked all the way downtown with him in his stroller and pushing his toy stroller in front of him :) He didn't give it up until we got inside a store and he saw a bag of candy.

Our art teacher's wife is pregnant and we were just talking about how kids love boxes, so I brought this down to him (this post on this laptop.) He cracked up!

So cute!

So today, Jayden tried to walk out the house with one of my packages and when we wouldn't let him, he grabbed my journal. I couldn't wait to come back and tell you, lol.

I am sure people excused her cute behavior ;)

I tried to give an old cell phone too. It's a flip. She didn't get it. I had to demonstrate how it "worked".

Mama Violet said...

LOL! Sorta like a boombox.....

Mama Violet said...

Good. I thought it was kinda crazy but I get it now. Babies do things we just wouldn't understand.

Mama Violet said...

Thank you. She especially loves this box because it has a handle.

Mama Violet said...

LOL! Why your journal? Just needed a quick carry? Does he normally take a toy out?

V always leaves with something now. Today it was a disposable camera.

Some people's cute is another person's cray cray. *shrugs*

Mama Violet said...

Kids are so quirky!

saheim loves rocks and when he was very little he loved carrying balled up pieces of tissue. he would cry if you took it from him. its was his lil paper friend. she looks hilarious with it. i would love to design it to look like a huge briefcase like she is going to work. haha.

She likes to hold random pieces of paper too. I bought her some puffy stickers and she has been wearing them and carrying them even to bath and bed.
