Oh yeah. I’ve so been there. And posted about it too, I believe.
Do you not have pets? I didn’t see pet food on there. Although, I think both of my kids were just over a year old when they tasted their first sweet nibble of dog food. Yummm.
Good to know my son is not the only one who has a taste for mulch and bugs! We are currently infested with mayflies (known to some as mosquito hawks), and so they sneak in from outside and die all over the house. I have managed to pull three out of his mouth, and I don’t want to think about the ones he may have swallowed before I caught them. Also, my son’s hair does the same thing. It’s impossible to control.
Just yesterday I removed a plastic bead (cue first-time mother anxiety: Oh my god she could have choked to death on that ) AND a small stone from E’s mouth. She and L regularly require mouth finger sweeps for carpet fibres from our rug and the cat scratching pole. But the worst was a piece of BROKEN GLASS (from a jar I broke and thought I’d tracked down every last piece) L was about to put in her mouth.
Wouldn’t you think that from an evolutionary perspective, babies’ habit of putting any small object they find into their mouths would NOT advance the survival of the species? I don’t get why they do it.
Amy- Henry too! I took the picture fast, and the bowl was on the floor less than a minute later. (The bowl was from his big brother: I asked William to get Henry some cereal, and William thought I meant in a bowl.)
How on earth did he get his mitts on mulch?
I love his Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde hairdo. Business on the left side, party on the right side!
That’s an expert devious look he has going on there. Wasn’t he a teeny infant, like 37 seconds ago?
High chair food from an *adult*, Henry.
That expression is priceless.
Look at that cheeky monkey grin!
Oh, the ladybug must have been a fun one!

He is one cute little guy. And looks a wee bit ornery too.
Whenever we go to the park, I spend half my time removing mulch from Maddie’s mouth.
Oh, and DOG FOOD! She lurrrves dog food.

haaaaa. and ew. ladybug is definitely my favorite. i used to eat newspaper, apparently.
But look at that face! Who could resist or ever reprimand that sweet, sweet face?!
With a face like that, who cares what he eats, right?
I once pulled a carpenter bee out of Charlotte’s mouth – thankfully dead,but HUGE.
Jennifer- It’s a Side Mullet!
Omaha Mama- We do have cats, but we keep their food in the basement.

Is it just me, or does Henry get cuter and cuter with each passing day?
How have you trained him to eat out of a BOWL? Mine still throw bowls and plates!
He’s so cute!!! I’m finding it much harder to keep little things out of O’s mouth than I did with d. This next one is really in trouble…

Oh man, that is pure orneriness on his face there.
OMG I love the ladybug, but the jellybean was my favorite. He’ll get you back for not letting him eat that!!!! lol
Hah!
Poor little ladybug!
