The other day in the car, I thought to myself, "Wow, Nyla is really quiet. I bet she's asleep." Since Paul was driving, I was able to turn around and take a little look at my girl. Homegirl was not asleep; she had managed (in the sitting position) to bring her entire foot up and put it in her mouth. This little position is just impossible for me to even understand. She just looked completely comfortable and had no issues with doing this. And she's concerned for sanitary issues: she takes off her socks before putting her feet in her mouth. What a good girl!
I turned to Paul:
me: Paul, I dare you to try to put your foot in your mouth and hold it there for ten seconds.
Paul: Um, no. I couldn't breathe.
me: Me neither.
Don't judge us for being inflexible. You try putting your foot in your mouth and holding it there for an extended amount of time. It's hard!
I don't understand how babies are so flexible. When we change her diaper, Nyla likes to grab her feet again and put them both in her mouth. Talk about flexible! This means that the whole time I'm changing her diaper, I'm trying to avoid getting full-on sprayed with pee or salad-shooting poop.
I'm calling Cirque-du-Soleil. She's got a future with them.
