I saw it at a pizza buffet, a photograph of a baby sitting in an enormous pot of noodles. I knew, the instant it caught my eye that I just HAD to replicate it with my own adorable infant. At the time, J was small enough to fit perfectly into the largest pot from my Wolfgang collection. However, by the time I actually got around to buying a massive amount of spaghetti, boiling it, clearing a spot in the dining room, etc, etc, he no longer fit in ANY of my pots, not even my humongous canning one.
We had been snowed in for over a week and were all badly in need of entertainment.
We set out two pots full of noodles, and told him...
"Just have fun."
...I think he did. :)

That's hilarious! You are a brave woman!
I would say he did have fun! LOL
I would totally nominate you for the Mom of the Year award for volunteering yourself to clean up that mess! I'm sure it was all worth it, though.
Oh my goodness! I love the last picture. I bet the mess was worth every second of the fun! Thanks for stopping by to tour Nebraska and my blog!
It did take a few hours to clean it all up, but it was TOTALLY worth it. :)
That last picture actually won a photo contest in our local parenting magazine.
That's it - you get the mother of the year award. What fun, I am still laughing about that.
So how did the Oreo's go over? I hope that it was worth the wait.
Have a great weekend!!!

Oh, you are a NICE mom!! You got bonus points in heaven.
Do they give medals for this? You so deserve one ;)!
That's a cute idea, especially since pasta is cheap. And if they eat it? No big deal!
