Cheerio Monster

Six little cheerios,
minding their own business,
relaxing and sunning themselves
on the ottoman in the Lochhead livingroom...


...until Hurricane Grace
sweeps through,
grabbing innocent oh's
and leaving a trail of devastation in her wake...


When the storm eases,
they survey the damage...
...and realize they are now five.


What a sweet little monster!
Don't be fooled...she's merciless.
She's been known to snag three in one fist
and gum each one until they disintegrate into nothing.


She may even be storing several in her cheeks
as
we
speak.


Of course, brave moms have been known
to try to avert the monster
with bottle cap prisms,
but she is not thwarted for long.


Monster Gracie has just learned to stand at the ottoman,
and now that is all she wants to do!


She seems to be going through a
"no thanks"
stage when it comes to the bottle.
However, if STANDING,
she's suddenly a fan again.


Can't you hear the little cheerios
screaming for their lives to be spared
as they are shoved into the
CHEErio
holding
KompartmentS?


It's a bit early to be certain,
but after giving this little monster some creative play time,
we found this encrypted message
and are thinking she's quite advanced
for her 10-months-of-age...
