Your Itchy Fingers!

Jovann Teo, your fingers are getting more and more restless. Changing diapers for you is no longer a quiet affair. Now it involves you looking around interestedly for things to grab AND put into your mouth. A typical session goes like this.

Jovann turns around looking for something to pull. Eyes lighted on the red plastic bag, grabbed it and prompty bring to mouth.
I pull it away quickly, worried the dirty diaper inside will spread their germs to him.
He looked behind him, found the tissue box cover, and squirmed his body around to consider it appraisingly for a while, before grabbing it again, and pulling out 4-5 pieces of tissue to stuff into his mouth.
I will be trying to clean his backside and having a hard time coz he won't keep still. At the same time pulling out the tissues from his opened wet mouth before he swallows one.
He will searched around again, relentlessly....... the cotton pads! Grabbed it and waved it triumphantly and madly around his head, squeezing it hard with both hands, seemingly gone bersek.
At this time, I am trying to put the clean diaper on for him. I pulled away the cotton pad bag for fear the sharp edges will poke into his eyes.

It was only later that I started to give him his beansprout pillow during all diaper changes, to prevent the above from happening. Now I fully understand why they have toys called "changing table toys". Gosh.
