Gerber Baby


Shane is LOVING his baby food. Today my baby piggy inhaled 3 jars of baby food. He is acting like he's been eating food forever. He's all "Mom, where are you keeping this stuff? It's fantastic. I am going to try and grab the whole jar and suck the food right out of it. I don't even need a spoon. Don't waste your time boob lady!" So far he has eaten bananas, cereal, and pumpkin with pears. Tomorrow I am going to try hamburgers, hot dogs, and some cheese!

John brought a bunch of baby food home from the company store at work and now the kids think that John makes baby food at work for Shane. They ask me all kinds of questions about it! Where does Daddy gets the bananas for Shane's baby food? What kind of cereal does he use? Why is Shane eating pumpkins....you don't eat pumpkins?!?!? It's easier to agree with them since I get asked the same question 3 times in a row by each kid until they get the answer that they want. So I agree that Daddy grows bananas and pumpkins at work and uses Raisin bran cereal for the baby food cereal. He smashes it all up with his hands, gets really dirty, and pushes it all into a jar for Shane. That sounds like a fun job doesn't it?

I read an article today that said that the average 3 year old asks 300 questions a day. I thought about that for a while and then I thought....that seems kinda low! So, I decided that tomorrow I am going to try and keep track of the number of questions that Wyatt asks. I was telling John about my plan at dinner tonight and while I was explaining it to John, Wyatt asked me 5 questions in one minute. Think about that! So if that carries through to tomorrow that would be 300 questions an HOUR!!!! Yeah 300 questions a day....we can blow past that without even trying. If Wyatt gets up at 7am and goes to bed at 7pm and asks 5 questions/minute, how many questions will he ask during the day? Answer: 3,600 questions. Now that sounds about right!
