jack loves the remote.
blog readers all know this -- there are myriad pictures of jack with the remote. he even had double remotes in the latest episode of hot pursuit. and blog readers also probably know that jack has his own remote to play with, but that he realizes it does not actually control anything and so relegates it to second class status, in favor of the real remotes.
he has been known to change channels (indian zee-tv is a favorite), raise and lower volume, and make the screen go blue. but, utilizing the remote requires that he find it. for a while now, mommy and daddy have been hiding the remotes behind a couch pillow to keep them safe.
well ... the jig is up.
jack now understands that the remotes are behind the pillow and will go hunting for them. as he has in the past (as his nana can attest), this morning jack threw the pillow aside to reveal two remotes. but, they were slightly out of his reach. after trying valiantly to stretch his arms all the way to the back of the couch, he realized he needed to get up on the couch.
so he took the pillow he had thrown on the floor, stood on it, pulled on mommy's leg, and managed to climb on to the sofa. once ascended, he grabbed the remotes and happily changed from "Gregory In the Morning" on MSNBC to CNBC. I guess he wanted to check on his portfolio and the overnight activity in the Asian markets.
Ok seriously, that was pretty ingenious. And why is that remote bigger than Jack??
