Toothy-Pegs

Silas is learning how to eat with his hands.

This is an important skill to learn towards enjoying a juicy hamburger!

To get there, he is starting with these teething rusks, aka toothy-pegs.

 

He enjoys rubbing them on his gums.

 

I guess they must taste ok too.

 

The negative side effect of this is a huge slobber puddle that is worse than a dog with peanut butter placed on the roof of their mouth.

(No, I've never done that to our family dog!

And we aren't supposed to give Silas peanut butter yet. :) )
