*WEAK STOMACH WARNING* If you find everyday dirt on children disgusting, you may wish to ignore this post!
One day she may be embarrassed that I blogged about this, but I just can't ignore Reagan's latest obsession any more! You may find it offensive (really--it's just baby feet), but I want to remember the cuteness of my baby girl picking her toes for all time. Yes, you read correctly. I think Reagan picking her toes is CUTE!
Somehow Reagan discovered "toe jam". That's what I called it as a kid anyway, and hadn't thought about it again until recently--when Reagan started obsessively looking for toe jam between her toes.
Here's a definition in case you are clueless as to what I am talking about.
I'm not sure exactly how it happend, but Reagan's toe-spreading and "sweeping" has become an everyday (and sometimes multiple times a day) occurrence. She will get the idea to remove her socks and pry each toe apart from the ones beside it to look and see if any sock lint has collected. She is serious about this new job of hers. When she's looking for toe jam she's in the "zone". There's no stopping her. If I'm changing her diaper I must wait until she checks each toe before she will put her leg back down enough that I can strap her diaper on. If she finds any she sweeps it out with a finger and moves on to the next space between her toes. I think it's funny (and cute), but Todd doesn't harbor the same feelings. If he sees it, he tells me to tell her to stop--he doesn't like the site of her toes being pulled so far apart (LOL) and thinks she's going to break them off. Here are some pictures in case you are having a hard time imagining this serious task of toe jam removal.
