Parenting Fail

Thanks to the joys of nursing an infant (*sarcasm noted) my watchful eye of my overactive toddler has taken a bit of a backseat.

Today, while nursing my daughter, Jack got a hold of a tube of Chapstick from the diaper bag.  I reveled in the few minutes of peace and quiet while he was trying to figure out how to open it.  When things became unusually quiet, I got up to investigate.

I guess he was underfed at lunchtime, because by the time I tracked him down (hiding between two pieces of furniture) he had eaten the entire tube. On the upside, he did manage to "moisturize" his entire face.  Who needs Aquaphor? Chapstick is so much cheaper.
