cute trumps gross...mostly

I left Avery pushing a chair across the kitchen floor. She'd already pushed one against the wall, and the second chair was headed for the fridge. I thought maybe it would buy me about a minute, all the time I needed to switch the clothes from the washer to the dryer. I could hear some noise and I was calling out to her but I knew exactly what was going on and I was too late.



It takes some serious concentration to scatter dog food everywhere.



And then she went and did this...



And that was gross. I'd already moved her hand away from her mouth a dozen or more times which she took as, "I must try harder to get this in my mouth!" So I let her. Then I got it out and moved her away from the mostly eaten mess. I'm like, the meanest mom in the world.



Right after that she crawled back to the dog mat and stuck both hands in their water bowl. And then she got a bath and she brushed her teeth. The end.
