Mommy's Little Piggy

We made mashed potatoes the other night and decided to give Owen some. I tried to feed him with a spoon but that was going nowhere quick so we let him have a crack at it. He had a good time and I think he even got some of the potatoes into his mouth.


Owen licking the wrong side of the bowl.


In his defense, the outside had the same amount of potatoes as the inside.


Cuteness and messiness causing conflicting feelings.

And for those of you with a keen eye, you'll notice this is Owen's second demonstrated similarity to the little brother from A Christmas Story. Here's the first:

I wonder how that kid turned out.

These cute photos turned back time for me! Eddy, when your mom was around Owen's age she LOVED mashed potatoes. (she still does) It was funny to see her turn down some pretty good treats in favor of potatoes. I've also seen Trina order just mashed potatoes in restaurants. Owen will likely come to like them a lot too...It's apt to be in his jeans. ;)

Love, Greatgrandma M

Yes, yes I do love mashed potatoes. I can see what Owen and I will be doing the next time we're together.
