Alternative Uses for an Exersaucer

October 23, 2008 · Narrative

I caught her doing this the other day, and now it’s a regular habit of hers. Know why she’s in the bottom of her exersaucer?

To pick up stray Cheerios that she dropped when she was actually sitting inside it.

Cracks me up every time I see her haul her little butt in there.

    LOL, gotta love the ingenuity! But if that was my house, the dogs would have beat her to the Cheerios … they make excellent vacuums.

    little ones don’t know (or care about) the 5 second rule. My dogs are cheerio vacuums and respond well to the word Cheerios. They’ll trade treasures for a stale cheerio.

    Sarah – he always waits dutifully underneath her swing and her high chair. So far, he hasn’t figured out this latest source of snacks. ;)

    Jan – lol – saw an episode recently – http://sweetnicks.com/2008/08/what-ive-learned-from-food-detectives/ – that said no more 5-second rule, so we’re going to try not to think about it. :) Luckily it’s just her socked feet in there and not foot traffic. Dogs *will* eat anything, won’t they?

    The Neighbor Wife – love tiny feet.

    Patsy – and the way she eats, not sure if she’d care if she knew! :)

    Darius – totally!

    Claire – when it comes to food, absolutely!

    ttfn – definitely no food waste with her. She frequently can outeat her brother!
