My wonderful 8 month old, Austin, doesn't play with any of his cool toys we have for him. Nothing seems to entertain him - I mean NOTHING! I spend half of my days just trying to entertain him, and keep him out of things. And the only thing he wants to do it play with all the things he shouldn't (go figure, I’m sure that's typical though). The only thing he likes is phones, cell phones, TV controls, and keyboards.
Last night we were at TJ Maxx and I found the cutest baby laptop. It's so cute. You hit the spacebar on it and it makes noise and there is a mouse - that is a mouse and I was hoping that Austin would like it. Well I gave it to him today and he crawled away. The only way he showed any interest was when I put him on a chair so he couldn't crawl away. Gizmo showed more interest in it! So me being curious I pulled out my old laptop and put it on the floor with Austin, sure enough he crawled right to it and started pounding on the keys! Go figure!
So now Austin not only has his own cell phone but he now has a laptop. He better grow up to be electronically smart! Heck maybe even the next Bill Gates - but a lot more handsome! :)
Here he is just staring at it
Gizmo shows more interest
Surprise, surprise he likes the real thing!
