Its like there is a human being in there somewhere, but its hard to identify it under the piles of slime, yoghurt and other food items that he has liberally applied to his skin, clothes and hair.
I thought pancake day was a low point when he decided to clean the plate ( covered in maple syrup and blueberries) with his face, hands and hair. Yes his hair, what on earth would possess someone to take a filthy sticky plate, to tip it upside down and to then rub it on their head, I do wonder if he is a little bit mental.
Its not a great photo, but if you are wondering, that is indeed maple syrup dripping down his forehead.
Anyway each day he ends the day with a little self feeding ( he does finger foods in the day, but I keep the spoon and mess attempt to the end of the day). I estimate that
about 70% of the yoghurt ends up on his body or clothes,
about 10% on the floor, chair and table,
about 5% is left on various spoons as he scoops it out chucks the spoon away and requests another spoon
about 5% is snuck into the dogs mouth while I am not looking,
about 10% remains in/ on the mutilated pot
and less than 0.000000001% makes its way into his mouth.
Oh well, this stage won't last forever, I am sure he will have slightly better skills and manners by the time he is about 18 or so.
