Just one wish...

If I could keep my baby out of the dog food and my dog out of my baby's food--that would be nice.

Keller is getting sneakier and more creative in his use of the dog kibble.  This morning I heard little metallic tinks over and over; found out that Keller had put all of Riley's breakfast into the sink piece by piece.  Then later he got into my friend's dog's food; and hers really smelled.

And Riley (our dog) will nab just about anything that Keller holds out at arms length.  I simply can't get my 16 month old child to understand defensive eating tactics.  Riley doesn't even try to get my food, but he watches Keller like a hawk.

Right now I feel like I have two toddlers; and I would now recommend, to anyone who asks me, that you hold out on dog purchases until your children are no longer classified as "babies."  Because I have a lot of immature/primitive brains around here; and this food battle seems never-ending.

If only my words could make a difference, and one of them would look at me with understanding and obedience.  "Ok, Mom, I won't touch that food anymore."  Problem solved.  Wishing wishing.
