My Monster Eaters

Ok, so anyone who knows our family well knows that my kids are some GOOD EATERS. They weigh about 100 lbs. total between the 4 of them, thus, where the food goes is a mystery that I am hoping some scientists with a huge grant will one day want to explore in the Huhtala children. They all eat as much as a large adult, yet can't gain an ounce to save their lives!

Anyhoo.....following the Huhtala tradition our newest addition has caught on to the joys of eating with the rest of the family. Here he is waiting for his food...he looks innocent enough right?



As you can see by his animal like face as he eats, you DO NOT want to attempt to take any food from him. (Being our 4th child, I obviously don't recognize choking hazards anymore in case anyone is appalled by this...I just hand him whole nectarines, peaches or plums and he loves to go to town.)


Here he is doing his nightly ritual of sneaking up to the table to try and snack on some leftovers that haven't been cleared yet. (That night we had ribs)



Here he is chowing down on some homemade apple cinnamon oatmeal I made..I knew he would make me proud!



And finally, proof that anything is edible, here he is eating paint (non-toxic of course).



Donations for the Huhtala bottomless pits will not be turned away. EVER.
