The Third

First child:
Ate only baby cereal until 9 months of age. Ate only in a sterilized high chair. Ate only food that was diced into miniscule bites (once she reached the appropriate age for table foods, of course).
Third child:
Gnawing on a whole chunk of french bread at 7 1/2 months, on a floor that hasn't been mopped in a week. (disclaimer: I really was watching him closely so that he wouldn't choke :)
But the look of pure joy and satisfaction on his face is priceless....(besides, it kept him entertained long enough for me to cook lunch).

I totally have this problem and I am only on number 2!

HA! I'm with Jodee, I did that stuff with Kosty all the time. Maybe thats why I'm not being blessed with a third!!

Ok, I'm already like this with Mags, so there's no hope for number three. Jonny's informed me that Maggie will no longer be allowed to chew on the pugs' bones when he gets home...

Hilarious! I won't tell you how bad it gets with number 5....:) Your kids are just darling (and your posts are hilarious!). Thanks for a great laugh and a fun update.

I'm just in shock that you haven't mopped your floor in over a week! We'll just assume that you're a little off on your cleaning schedule with summer and vacations and all. Summer or not, I don't dare confess on a public blog how long I go in between moppings. My kids could probably find a whole meal on the floor. That sure is a happy content third child!
