The Benefits of Having Chubby Cheeks

Tonight we had taco soup for dinner and I gave Liam a few of the kidney beans. An hour later, as I was giving him a bottle before bed, he pushed the bottle out of his mouth and started cramming his fingers down his throat. I couldn’t figure out what was going on until he pulled the skins of two kidney beans out of his mouth. Not only did he save them in the side of his mouth for an hour, he even drank half a bottle without swallowing them.

My boy is so talented.

My family always talks about how when I was little I would be found hours later with food stuffed in my cheeks. It was usually something I didn't like to eat. I guess I was avoiding swallowing it.
He probably just didn't like the texture of the bean skins.
