Advertisement for Tomato Staking!

Mothers and Fathers, ever wonder why you should tomato stake your children?

Because, if you don't, THIS could happen...

So I am guessing this is...chocolate sauce? Once Sienna at an ENTIRE jar of Nutella while hiding behind the rocking chair. When she emerged looking very much like your little one in the photo, I asked her, "What have you been doing?" Her answer, "Nothin'"
Poor little guy looks like he is not gonna get out of this one! : )

Wow! That is a mess for sure. Good thing he is so cute dirty!

I have plenty of tomato cages here! ;)

IS THAT chocolate sauce? looks like it could be oil or grease from your hubby's work shop. Or maybe paint/stain. No matter what it is, it looks pretty messy!

It's chocolate syrup.

FYI-even with bleach...it's almost impossible to remove it from an off white carpet.

Yes, he IS cute. Such a precious smile and eyes. It's what kept him alive that day! (just kidding)

you KNOW that this is his way of rebelling against the removal of his nursing LOL!!!

glad it was chocolate syrup and not something harmful to his little body since has it around his mouth.

do you need some of my extra tomatoes stakes? they are the square ones that will give them a little wiggle room! lol

musicmommy3 said...

Hee hee Jane. NO! No wiggle room for this little explorer. :)

Most of you know what I mean when I say tomato staking but for those who don't...you can find it

well, now it is clear! given that we don't have children in our home, I had never heard of this book. I thought you were looking for a way to contain your little guy. maybe some day I will need that book ;)

musicmommy3 said...

Most of what is in the book is found on her website in the left there. I would HIGHLY recommend any parent browsing through. Even if you don't spank at your house you can use the techniques with other forms of discipline. Check out the heart stuff especially. :)

He is so cute even with the dirty face. I thought it looked like Choc. sauce. A long time ago a neighbor of mine, her little boy put molasses on the carpet then poured flour on top. She cried.
I'm glad I didn't have to try to clean it up.
