Too funny! When our first kiddo was Sierra’s age, he found his ear. He grabbed it and played with it, and pulled it. It hurt! He yelled and yelled, which we interpreted as “HELP! SOMEBODY’S PULLING MY EAR OFF!” It was SO hard not to laugh, but he did it over and over again, no matter how many times we rescued him…

Don’t give in, she will start asking for the car keys next! Or it will seem that way.

There’s lots of “nerf” stuff out there to give them. It may be time (but first get the smacks on the head on video, those will be hilarious to watch over and over).

Hee hee. Our 6 month old is still doing that from time to time. It’s funny but I can’t bear watching it.

Great stuff! She’s starting to figure out how much power she can have over you.
The wife and I have been watching babies with a sociological interest lately. We’ve seen countless examples of kids a little older than Sierra who, while sitting in their strollers, will hold thier bottle or some other object out with a straight arm to the side and without breaking eye contact with their parent (or even blinking an eye) will drop it out of plain defiance.
They figure out very quickly who holds the power.
