The objects of Sammy's culinary attentions

- a bar of soap
- a cigarette butt
- a piece of garlic
- a bay leaf
- uncooked leek
- Maya's toes
- a small wooden chicken
- a piece of green chalk
- an earplug
- various stickers
- substantial amounts of paper, cardboard and tissue

These are all items that Sammy has attempted to eat over the past couple of months that got scooped back out before they went down. What inept parents. Or... what a super speedy 11-month old who needs to chew on everything. He was even caught on video taking a nibble of Ahmed's heel today.


Here's Sammy attempting to eat the wall.


Sammy trying to decide if the ball will fit in his mouth.


Maya reading a book and Sammy wondering how it will taste.


Sammy sizing up the piƱata and preparing to put all the small choking hazards that fall out of it into his mouth.

Ah yes, life is fun. This time in a week I'll have finished my masters degree and will finally be able to actually write about the past month of our crazy new lives as the parents of two amazing kids. A barrel of laughs apart from the late nights writing about vocabulary acquisition, blah de blah.

I'm glad it's not just my kids who do weird things like that :) My first was very good and only ever put food in her mouth, but my 2nd felt the need to put EVERYTHING in her mouth for a long time. Thank goodness they grow out of it eventually.

Yep, that sounds about right!

Kids that age are not necessarily trying to eat, but their tongues are things they control well, that teach them geometry and texture as well as taste, and are primary sensory organs.

It might be less about eating than exploring.

We used a binky to good effect here. When my daughter had a binky in her mouth the other stuff could not go there.
