fan of a fan

We wanted some toys for her. We searched couple of shops and after a lot of discussions, I picked up this really cool and colorful musical gym for her. Well, I thought babies like bright colors and this gym looked just perfect for small babies. I myself was fascinated by those vibrant colors and I was pretty sure that she would love to play with all those cute toys hanging about there.

After returning home, we assembled the playgym and put her in it. I wanted to her to be overjoyed or something. But to my surprise, she was not at all interested in any of that. We tried to attract her attention to the bright green leaves, cute lil giraffe and other things, but she was not too keen on playing with those things.

She was too happy with the ceiling fan instead. In fact, after a while she started crying, since those dangling toys were blocking her vision and she was not able to see the fan. I tried to use this gym for few more days without much luck. After trying for two weeks or so I gave up on that gym thing.

I think we don't really understand her yet. Did I mention about this true love of hers before? Oh boy, She loves ceiling fans so much.... whether on or off. Whenever she is moved into any new place, first thing she tries locate is ceiling fan. And as soon as she gets to look at the fan, she gives it gorgeous smiles. Sometimes she is so happy that she actually giggles loudly. I fail to understand what's so attractive about the plain simple white ceiling fan. She is sooooo happy when she is playing with the ceiling fans. Sometimes even during crying, if she happens to spot the fan, she giggles a bit and then resumes her crying session. We have tried to distract her with fans n number of times and it has worked well every single time.

So ceiling fan it is! Looks like we are going to save a lot of money by not having to buy any of those fancy toys.
