Gift Wrapping

So, tonight I told Z since she woke up at 8pm that she had to help mommy wrap gifts....what was mommy thinking! It started out good I gave her a bow to play with and that seemed to be working and then I brought out some ribbon...after that she was all grabby and I thought her and the cat (Tater Tot) were going to come to fisticuffs. They were actually playing tug of war with the ribbon, it was hysterical. I was going to get the video camera and I noticed Z getting a little too close to the kitty who (hasn't so far but protecting her ribbon) looked like she would definitely invoke the warning nip...which would not have turned out good for Tatie so I stopped the game and tried to get Z involved in another bow.

From there it only spiraled downward. Whatever I gave her she was much more interested in the stuff she couldn't have plastic bags & scissors and she always wanted the bow attached to a present. So we wrapped three gifts and when she pulled a bunch of wrapping paper off the roll and smashed her face in it I decided to give up for a while. (It was still pretty cute too watch, though) I did save the paper she ripped off for one of her gifts since she will never know it doesn't look like it should.
