Saliva Shower

We own a silicone pastry brush that has somehow made its way into baby's box of shame. Remember that box that we used to put baby in? He doesn't spend as much time in it as he used to, so we use it to store his belongings. By belongings I mean things he seems to enjoy that he's left his mark on. Babies leave their mark similarly to dogs, but with saliva instead of urine. So over the last few weeks, baby has collected a number of random objects in his box of shame and one of those items is a silicone pastry brush. It's technically a silicone basting brush from our turkey kit, but that's not important.

So anyways. This silicone brush looks something like this:

 

Baby likes to take the brush and put it in his mouth. He was sitting next to me on the couch playing with the brush this morning when all of a sudden my computer screen was covered in water droplets. Then a second later, a second wave of liquid hit my face, covering my glasses. Baby figured out how to use the bristles of the brush as tiny elastic catapults to fling saliva all over the place. Needless to say, the brush has made its way back to our drawer and out of the box.
