If It Aint Broke...

So, you know how eating goes, right? You cry, somebody brings you a bottle, you eat it, burp, everybody goes home happy.

Well, tonight Mommy and Daddy tried a new system, and it was ugly.

First, they put me in my Bumpo chair. Then, instead of putting the milk in a bottle, they put it in this other thing, then mixed some stuff in it that made it thicker. I'm watching this thinking that there is no way that stuff is going to come though a bottle.

Anyway, Daddy breaks out this plastic thingy, dips it in the stuff, then heads for my mouth with it.

Um, no thanks.

He was persistant, though, and just started jamming it in there. Naturally, it got all over may face, bib and onsie. This went on for about ten minutes. They thought it was hilarious.

Finally, they remembered how to do it the old way and just gave me a bottle. Why they didn't just do that from the beginning, I'll never know. Anyway, I'm glad that's over. Hopefully we will never do it again.
