Vinny Eating Habits, Kind Of

This post is all for Vinny. I know I don't share him on here as much as I do Alfy and I would like to dedicate time to both. So, without further ado, here is an introduction as to what my 2 year old has eaten in his short life, sounds boring, but wait for it...

- Old, dehydrated bugs found on the floor of a room you haven't been in for a while
- Dog food (a big fan)
- Cat food
- Dog treats (the milk bones)
- Cat treats (no longer allowed to "give" these to the cat, as they never get to her)
- White foam from potting soil
- Cat litter (not in the litter box but some that had spilled out, still gross)
- Dirt
- Rocks 

Those are just a few of the more odd things. It sounds like I never look after my child, but I promise I do. It takes no time at all for him to grab something and then pop it into his mouth. I always go through a series of reactions.

"Oh my God, what did you just eat?" As I frantically try to pry his mouth open.

I usually find it and realize there is now way I'm getting it out of his mouth. "Well, I hope that isn't too horrible for you..."

To not being able to get any of it out and/or watching him swallow. "Alright, we made it through that. Give you some water to rinse it down and keep an eye you." 

Fortunately nothing has come of any of these incidences. 

Things he will not eat, lots of different types of human food. He'll try cat food but there is no way you're getting the kid to eat hot dog. 

Go figure.
