Raven and I went to Target to get some home items, it is also one of our favorite places to go.  I happened to stroll by the baby toy section and saw a key looking toy that played music.  I put it up to Raven's ear for her to listen to it and she grabbed the toy from me and began chewing on the top of the box, oops.  I quickly tried to take away the toy to not damage it and she began to cry.  I went ahead and gave her the toy to buy for her.  I said aloud, "You have me so whipped."  A Target employee happened to be walking by as I said this and smiled.  At least it was money well spent, she is playing with the toy now (though she has a bajillion toys to choose from).  I guess it was my fault since I showed Raven the toy, but I feel like this is just a first of many times Raven will give me her sad puppy eyes and get a toy she wants.  I'm going to be sensible and not let her ALWAYS get toys, the last thing I want is a very spoiled child who becomes an entitled adult.  But hey, it's Christmas time and she is only 8 months old.  I'll let her have one toy she likes at the store.
