I'm trying to break Emzilla of the habit of wandering around the house when she is brushing her teeth. What that turned into tonight was a screaming toddler laying on the floor in the bathroom, me holding her down and brushing them for her. I don't think she liked that so much...
Ben had his first real (i.e. not pureed) food today - blueberries! But, sweet readers, he did not have them on purpose... We had a playdate with some friends at the house this morning and I gave out blueberries in dixie cups as a snack. Someone must not have eaten all of theirs and left them in the play tent in the back yard. I didn't notice them when I kerplunked Bento in the tent this afternoon to play while I cleaned up the backyard. A few minutes later I noticed from afar that he was happily chewing on the dixie cup. I thought nothing of it - it's just a paper cup - and kept cleaning. When I looked back again a minute or two later I noticed he had something all over his face. I ran over to find him covered in blueberry goo. He had chewed through the cup from the bottom and mushed the blueberries everywhere. Too funny! I am hoping that blueberries are not one of the forbidden fruit for babies. Great. Now I am paranoid and need to check the internet...
Okay, I'm back. Phew, blueberries are listed on the "least allergenic foods" side of the charts. Not that there is anything I could do about it now - 5 hours later... Hmmm, might need to rethink my parenting skill on that one. Oops.
