Hip-Hip Cheerio!

JT has been eating solid foods for a few months. It has been going slow. Apparently, JT is lazy when he eats. He doesn't like to actually chew as that takes more work. He would rather his food be mushy so he can swallow his food faster. Not only does he not like to chew, but he is a slow chewer. For example, he might eat a piece of chicken for 30 minutes. ONE PIECE.

The one thing JT loves to snack on is Cheerios. Aya likes to give JT a handful of Cheerios. Again, his laziness comes into play. He doesn't like to put the Cheerios in his mouth. He likes to pick them up and...Hold them...Crush them.. Throw them. Obviously that irks me. Cheerios all over the place. When I give him Cheerios I count them. 3-4 cheerios. All accounted for and none on the floor.

Of course if they do fall on the floor I just stick them in JTs mouth. No harm, no foul, right? Nope. Aya doesn't like that.

What to do? I don't like Cheerios on the floor and Aya doesn't like Cheerios dropped on the floor fed to JT. Hmm. I came up with a solution!

For every Cheerio I find on the floor, I can stick them down Aya's underwear! Genius. I dunno how I come up with such great ideas. I guess it just comes to me. One night I found several on the floor. So, I scooped them up, pretended to hug Aya and dropped the cheerios down Aya's shorts. (hee-hee).

I could hardly contain myself but I was patient. I waited a few hours and then:

Miles: YOU HAVE CHEERIOS IN YOUR UNDERWEARS!!
Aya: Huh, no I don't.
Miles: Ya-huh. Take off your pants.
Aya: No.
Miles: Take'em off!
Aya: Okay........
Miles: hahahahahahahaha...CHEERIOS IN YOUR UNDERWEARS!!!

How much do I rule???
