The Toliet Brush Toy!

Why is it that as many toys as you buy L...her favorite things to play with aren't toys at all?!

Case in point...this week's toy of the week: toilet brush

So after a month of one toilet brush for the whole house I decided enough was enough and picked up one for every bathroom so I didn't have to haul the gross thing around the house and risk a drop of dirty water somewhere - yuk!

L was giddy in the Target aisle as I was picking out the brushes. Then we get home and immediately she gets two out the the bag and starts dragging them around the house "brushing" walls and what-not with them.

A couple days later, I'm in the shower and I see her walk into my bathroom, turn side ways to squeeze between the wall and toilet and pick up the brush. (YES - I haven't used it!) She squeezes her way back out and starts brushing the tub my shower door, the hallway, etc.

Then I'm at Home Goods yesterday with L finding a rug for the bathroom I just painted. Low and behold L walks two aisles over and pulls out two toilet brushes from their holder and starts scrubbing the floors and shelves!

And THEN this morning, I'm cleaning up breakfast and I see her go in the bathroom turn sideways to fit between the wall and the toilet and pull out the garbage can I had put there to block her view of the toilet brush, squeeze back in and...PULL OUT THE TOILET BRUSH! I couldn't help but laugh - it's her favorite thing this week!

Of course last week's favorite thing was the dog's leashes...ahh the simple joys of being a child - can't wait for next week's favorite toy!
