Another gem from the mouth of Eli! Since forever we've tried to remind Eli to not talk when food is in his mouth. We usually tell him we can't understand him when food is in his mouth, so he needs to wait until he swallows to talk. This works about 50% of the time, though he needs reminders at almost every meal. A few days ago it really sunk in. I asked Eli a question and he just looked at me and then said, "no." I did not ask him a yes/no questions, so I was confused. Then Eli said,"food in mouff". I guess it's working!!
