My little human vacuum cleaner

Avery, the orally fixated and faster than a speeding bullet, ate one of her sister's Dora the Explorer Colorforms the other day. One turned up her diaper and gave her mother a good laugh. Thankfully, it didn't lodge in her windpipe on the way down.

I have fished a zillion things out of her mouth but mostly it's dust bunnies or crumbs and today she tried eating both a diaper, which left a long string of cottony stuff coming out of her mouth, and the yarn hair of a Groovy Girl, again, leaving a long string of cottony stuff coming out of her mouth-it was just a different color. (I suppose it doesn't help that I encouraged her to munch on maxi pads....)

I might mention that this love of inserting things into the mouth does translate to the high chair, where she will eat ANYTHING put in front of her. It is glorious, given that her older sister is quite particular about what she will munch on.
