A Hole in the Market

Eleanor has a mouth full of teeth. They are huge and there are a bunch of them. It was (literally) a pain when they were coming in, but now she feels better and eats a lot better. In fact, she eats just about anything she can get in her mouth. Here's yesterday fare, just as an example:

A slice and a half of toast spread with salmon cream cheese

Two cups of milk

An (adult) handful of Goldfish

A strawberry and banana cereal bar

A bowl of guacamole

Several spoonfuls of sour cream

Rice and Beans bummed off her grandpa's plate

More goldfish

Another cereal bar

Half a cup of spaghetti rings

A handful of dried corn

Two vanilla wafers

It's great. While still on the small size, she is gaining weight. But all this new found food lovin' has exposed a hole in the toddler product market. Toddler breath mints. Nora's breath has smelled like onions since her guacamole lunch yesterday. She's eaten a snack and two meals since then. She drank two cups of milk and brushed her teeth. She's slept and still she smells like onions. And, since I'm especially tuned in to the smell of onions, she feels the need to give me a huge smack on the lips every time my face is close enough.

So please, someone, get on the ball and invent some toddler breath mints. There's a fortune to be made.
