Last night we had peas and pasta...Ben's favorite. He had more of it in his hair and ear then in his mouth.

Anyone else want to share any messy face pictures?

Stories are fine too? What's your baby's favorite messy food?

Answer 3

I knew I could count on you to put a smile on my face.  As soon as I read the question and saw it was you I thought  "OO this will be fun!"

Anyways, here's Aaron.  Don't ask me why he looks so sad.  I think he knows how cute he looks with a pouty face.

Answer 6

I love a messy face!! Unfortunately Alexia doesn't get very messy too often. She is a very neat eater for a 6month old! Yesterday she was eating peas, one of her favorites, and decided to go Exorcist on me! I wish I could have gotten the pic when she was grinning like crazy with the peas all down her chin. By the time I got the camera she had already started to touch the peas on her face. http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j24/ma...

**Everyone who posted pics.. Beautiful babies!!!! So cute with their messy faces!!!

Answer 7

Answer 10

I don't have an online photo account yet to share pictures so I will describe it. We have a picture of Landon eating red beans and rice with an Oreo cakester for dessert. He is covered from his hair all the way down his neck in red beans and black Oreo and he is grinning from ear to ear. So cute!

Answer 11

Very PRO messy face...I let him eat his food how he wants...His new favorite messy food now would have to be pudding or spaghetti

Answer 12

Oh, totally against it.  Don't you know that breastfed babies don't get messy when they eat solids?  They also don't get dirty from playing outside.

(kidding, I hope I didn't go too far there)

Here's Mickey, meeting a piece of asparagus and a wheat roll for the first time:

Suprisingly, not that messy.  I wish I had taken pictures of him eating watermelon the other night- that was a disaster!  He found it more entertaining to beat the watermelon, than to eat the watermelon.  It was in his hair, his ears, my hair, the wall...His tray was a pool of watermelon juice.

I am lovin' this question!  We need more "controversey" around here!

Answer 13

I don't know any babies who aren't messy! I am an advocate for the messy pic for many reasons! First of all it is adorable and you can use it against your kids when they get older!

Answer 14

I'm Pro-Messy Face.
