For the Love of Paper

Avery has found something she can't keep her little hands off of. PAPER. It is light weight, easy to hold and fold, and it makes the most wonderful noise! If there is paper around she will somehow find it, get it, and eat it. At first I didn't think it was bad. I would watch her and once it got too soggy I would either replace it or take it away. Well one day the paint on a brochure she was chewing started getting all over her mouth. Yikes. So I took it away and Avery threw her first fit! Over a Wells Fargo brochure! What? Then I started realizing that there was paper pieces in her diapers. After having a blue mouthed baby and paper-poopy diapers I have been trying to keep away from the paper, but she seriously finds it no matter what. And it really does make her happy.Yummy!

I am so happy! So so happy.

If it won't kill her, it can't hurt her! :)

Addie LOVES paper too! She can't get enough of it! I have to pull soggy bits of it out of her mouth all the time and try to keep it away from her. Maybe I should just let her have it, she really loves it more than any of her toys.

Haha...I love it. Just give her plain old computer paper...it can't be that bad can it? It doens't have the ink on it.

I can't get over how cute Avery is! I can't wait to love on her! Addie says she can't wait either, she's trying to kiss Avery on the computer screen!

Aww... that brings back memories! Taylor always loved to chew on paper, too- still does!! I was the same way- I didn't think it would hurt anything, but she had little pieces in some poopy diapers, too, and a couple of times she gagged on the paper, so that scared me, but it sure is hard to take it away from them when it keeps them so entertained!!
