Guess I say that a lot

Isaac greatly enjoys his baby-lotion bottle. It's a flip-top number, which is clearly an invitation for him to figure out how to open it using his teeth. At first I was more than happy to let him nibble on the top while I changed his diaper since he would be relatively motionless and content for more than a half-second. This changed slightly when he did get it open; still a contented Isaac, but suddenly I had to interrupt the diapering every half-second to close the bottle. Last week I was slow on my game and Dada caught Isaac squirting a decent dollop of lotion right in the old cake-hole, so ever since then the lotion bottle has been off-limits. Whenever he grabs it, he gets the Mommy warning oft-heard around here, "No baby, not in your mouth." Usually this works pretty well, at least until he tries again two seconds later. Tonight when he was again caught with the lotion bottle between his teeth, I again said, "No baby, not in your mouth." He pulled the bottle out just long enough to retort, "I said no!" It must be hard for him to take me seriously when I'm rolling on the floor.
