Oh, The Places You'll Go!

Since the babies have started on Cheerios, they have become an absolute requirement at every meal. The minute they are placed into their high chairs, they are looking for their Cheerios. They LOVE Cheerios (but then again, don't all little ones?)!!

As a result of this obsession, the beloved Cheerios seem to find themselves in all sorts of locations. Every so often, I even find one inside a diaper during a diaper change. I didn’t realize the amazing travel radius that these little round circles have. I seem to find them everywhere!!

I set out on a mission to see just how many places a Cheerio has appeared over the last week or so. It is important to note that we do not let the babies eat food (other than a bottle) in any location other than their high chairs.

I now present the Parker Family version of "Oh, The Places A Cheerio Will Go". Can you spy the cheerio in each picture?

In the bouncy seat:

In the dog's water bowl:


On the top of the exersaucer:


On the bottom of the exersaucer:

In the dryer:


In the jogging stroller:



In my tennis shoe:


And the grand finale....our bed!!!! This was after dinner, after baths, and after they finished their last bottle of the evening before bed (when Mike is home, we feed them together in our bed after baths):


Most likely, Ella is the culprit of the travelling Cheerios. As pictured in previous posts, she likes to hold food captive in her right hand while she eats with her left. Apparently, she is better than I thought at escaping my watchful eye and sneaking a Cheerio or two with her as she moves on to each new location.

PS - None of these pictures were staged..these are literally as how each Cheerio was discovered.

I enjoy reading your interesting stories of your two precious babies and check it often. The story about the cheerios was great!
