This is What Happens When Daddy is Left in Charge

by Chit Chat Mom on January 27, 2010


So there I was sitting in my office hard at work when I heard a screech of happiness from the kitchen.  Shrieks of joy and loud laughter are a common sound in our house these days.  Lily has found her voice and is determined to use it.  She especially loves to release high pitched squeals while in restaurants… but that’s another post.  A few moments after hearing the screech of happiness from the kitchen I heard the phrase “this is what happens when daddy is left in charge” fly from my hubby’s mouth.  Uh oh.  I wonder what in the world is going on in there. I walked in to find that my husband had decided to let Lily have a little snack using a teething feeder.  (A teething feeder if you’re not familiar is this great little invention that allows you to put food inside a little net pouch that baby can then suck on and only get very small amounts of food out of.)

Lily eating avocadoWhat had caused the screech and the follow up “when daddy is left in charge” came from the fact that Lily was covered in avocado.  Instead of putting a more substantial type of food like banana in the teething feeder, my husband had decided to put avocado. Lily loves avocado… I just don’t think it’s the right food for the teething feeder.

The end result was a very happy very messy baby that got a bed time bath from head to foot.

I can only imagine the shenanigans that these two will get in as Lily gets older.
