Mama vs. Jed Challenge: DOG FOOD


Mama: 1, Jed: 0. This was a close one, folks. This kid will do just about anything to get Lily's kibble bowl. He reminds me of a squirrel doing what ever he can to get that bird feeder. I am convinced it is ONLY because he knows he can't have it.

So this morning when I put Wild Thing on the floor to crawl, around I did my rounds. Gate at the stairs latched, check. Bathroom door closed, check. Dog food and water lifted, check. I thought I was safe. Boy, was I wrong. (Please note that as I type this, I turn around and the boy has every tissue pulled out of a tissue box)
I was in our bedroom using the computer and Jed wandered into the kitchen. All of a sudden I hear little things hit the floor. I thought it was my necklace/teether that he plays with so I really thought nothing of it because as previously said, I covered my bases(hold on, he just crawled into the door). Anyway, I didn't hear much after so I went to check it out.

Jed had reached up to the kitchen table, around the pushed in chair, perfectly tipped Lily's bowl on it's side and knocked some kibble onto the floor. How he managed this, I don't know. When he noticed my presence, his face turned to excitement and fear all at once as he shoved kibble into his mouth. "YUK!!", I said, "NO!!". I had to fish the piece out of his mouth as he kicked and yelled at me.

This was not the first Dog Food Challenge and I am sure this isn't the last. For now the big girl wins.
