The Open...

Since we have been traveling so much and Gavin hasn't been sleeping on all of our trips we decided to break out the portable DVD player to see if he would be entertained by it. He most certainly was but not in the way that we thought. He will watch for a few minutes and then he begins to open and close the DVD player. Once it was closed he couldn't get it open again so he would hand it to me and do his most annoying whine and then I would hand it back to him and say don't close it. Then he would begin to whine again and I would turn around and ask "do you want me to open it?" This would go on for a while. I didn't always mind because it kept him entertained. Then one day we were loading the car and he spotted the bag that carries the DVD and he pointed and said with a big grin on his face "Open." He has taken to calling it the Open since he heard me say it so much. Now when in the car he will start chanting "Open, Open, Open" and at least I know exactly what he wants. Let's hope he starts actually watching the movies soon.
