Cause and effect

Connor's repertoire of "b" words continues to expand and lately he's taken hold of button, which is rendered "butt". He has of course that child's sense of which remote controls actually work and will only play with those. Same thing with the phones. One interesting development though has been his growing sense that the buttons actually do something (hanging up on his grandparents for instance!). Recently, we discovered him hitting the buttons on the remote control for the ceiling fan, repeating "butt," "butt" and looking up to see if the light on the fan had gone on. He also likes to poke our belly buttons, so next thing I know, he's poking Sarah's belly button, and then looking up at the fan. Ummm, noooo...
