Tonight's dinnertime tragedy was inevitable. It was going to happen sometime. I will admit that I had been toying with the idea for about a week now. Savvy has graduated to the highchair and so since I only have one, Neelah "gets" to sit at the table. That means that I "get" to tell her over and over to sit down. I "get" to chase her down when she is wandering the house with random bits of food.
Tonight was different. I had too much going on in my head. I have a LONG LONG list of things to accomplish before we move as well as continue to run this house in a semi-normal fashion and I didn't have the patience to deal with "roaming Neelah" tonight.
Introducing the packing tape.
Am I a terrible mother that I admit to hoping that being taped to the table was traumatic enough to get her to sit and eat her food from now on?

That is so dang funny, I love that idea. Do you think it okay to do when we go out to eat or even at church?
Oh, and I love sweet little Savvy just chillin' with a big ol' grin on her face!
That's great Heather!!!!
I think that is the best idea. Annie still wanders around instead of eating.
