100 Words: The Boy Who Ate Everything

Listen here, Kid. In two hours you have inhaled one tube of Spongebob Go-gurt, three slices of bacon, two tomato basil cheese sticks, fourteen red grapes and a fruit cup.

You are two.

There is no possible way you could be as hungry as you claim to be.  Stop clutching your belly and howling in that dramatic fashion.

We have fed you. You are full. You need to slow it down, mister, or you are going to have a major tummy ache when you go to bed tonight.

Besides, your mother said she'd murder me if I give you chocolate.

    p.s. Had to laugh at your comment re: the CODE queen. :-) Actually, Michele is a man. He's in British Columbia, I believe. Don't know what his deal is, but it's taxing, deleting all his convoluted comments!

  5. Death by Chocolate (on this episode of Dateline...)
    As for Michele, I never respond to the comments. For me it's all about the 'delete' button.

  6. I love this.

    I don't think there's enough time in the world to document Oldest food consumption. He's at that "almost old enough to daily eat us out of house and home" age.

    *sigh*

    1. I can identify with that, having raised THREE boys (and a girl, too) all at once.

  7. Oh boy- it takes my daughter 2 minutes to consume the same (and then look for more). And she's still skin and bone. It ain't fair.

    Every kid should be allowed to get messy with chocolate. Especially a toddler. ;)

    1. it went like this: "Okay, kid. You can have one, maybe two pieces of chocolate, but you have to get right in the tub after, and we MUST brush your teeth. There can be no sign of chocolate any where AT ALL! This never happened..."
