Yummm Pudding

The other night while I was making dinner and Joey was assuming his normal position of milling about under my feet, he somehow snuck into the refrigerator and grabbed a 6-pack of Jello pudding. He proceeded to carry it around going "ummmmm. Eat? Eat?" as he frantically pointed to his mouth.

He threw a fit all through dinner as I tried to shove chicken and noodles, mashed potatos, and carrots into mouth by way of his fiercely pursed lips. He kept pointing to the fridge and boo-hooing over his lost pudding cup. I eventually got out the pudding and fed him bites of the sweet treat in between bites of his dinner. Perhaps it is not the most efficient way of encouraging Joey to eat his meal, but oh well. Eventually Joey snatched the spoon from my hand and fed himself. You choose your battles right? And seriously, the boy loves his pudding.
