Meal time

I wish mealtime wasn’t this chaotic.

I have a toddler… and a 9-month-old who is learning how to eat.

So dinner looks like:
one kid asking for snacks
one kid throwing food
and me wondering how there is somehow food on the floor… the chair… and the back of my shirt??

Meals take forever to prep.
They eat for 5 minutes.
Cleanup takes the rest of my life.

And with food intolerances in the mix, I’m over here reading labels like it’s a full-time job.

I love this stage… but wow, I wish it felt a little easier (and a lot less messy).

But a big pickle is easy :wink:

Oh my goodness the crumbs are everywhere I’m like how did this happen :joy: I got a little hand held vacuum for when they are done eating and it has made cleanup a little easier

No kidding! Kids are such messy eaters. My daughter eats only wearing her diaper a lot of the time. I just can’t stand a stain on her outfit. So much food everywhere!

Oh my goodness, that is genius!

WAIT THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!!! I gotta go buy one now

Look at that cute little pony tail on top oh my goodness :sob::face_holding_back_tears:
