Toddler Tips {will he stop throwing food?!}

Breakfast.Snack.Lunch.Dinner.

It doesn't matter what time of day, or what meal we're eating, Isaiah has developed a love for throwing his food.

At first, I actually thought it was kind of cute
{I know, what was I thinking?!}
In case you are wondering, I am past that.
Way, past that.
Food throwing as a professional sport started when Isaiah was about 10 months old
...but that was a good 7 1/2 months ago...
and by the end of every meal I'm about ready to pull my hair out

Here is a peek at what my floor looks like after a meal...and this was a relatively uneventful one


Two spoons, some yogurt, a tomato, a few olives and a scattering of pumpkin seeds later...
Isaiah's plate was removed from his tray....sigh

I've talked to some other trusted mommy's about this, and the general consensus is that it's just a phase.
I've been told that he'll move onto the next phase and I'll be wishing he'd just go back to throwing food.
Really?
I'm so not seeing that wish in my future!

I've tried every method I can think of.
Ignoring it.
Firmly telling baby boo boo that it's not ok to throw food.
Removing the tray from his high chair and taking him out.

Really, nothing seems to work.
He likes to throw food! But why?!

So, I'm calling out to all mommy's
{any one for that matter!}
who knows how to end the food throwing cycle
help!
I'm in need of some new ideas

I happen to have a feeling that I may just have to wait this one out.
Good thing he has a pretty cute messy face


On a brighter note, I did order a super cute pair of brown boots today!!
I've been drooling over them for several months now, and today they were shipped from Tennessee!
{after the nice shoe salesman spent hours, literally, on the phone with several stores in New York}

I can't wait for them to get here!
I hope I like them once they're on!! :S
