Charlotte: When I was in college I got a job working as security at a nuclear laboratory in the middle of nowhere Idaho. Really, we just sat around all day watching other people work. I had the opportunity one day to sit with a national champion in sumo wrestling. We had plenty of time to shoot the breeze and I found out a lot of neat things about him. After an hour or so, he said to me, "Would you like a snack?" He then opened up a cooler sitting next to him and pulled out three of those Hungry Man microwave dinners. I politely declined and sat in awe as he gobbled his "snack." It was then that I realized what it takes to become a national champion sumo wrestler: loads of food!
Boyd and I have a dream that one day our little Keido will aspire to be just like this man, a national champion sumo wrestler. The breast milk is just not cutting it these days so we have started him on hungry baby man dinners: rice cereal:) I think this video will speak for itself when it comes to our new adventure with Keido. He has mastered the first skill of all training sumo wrestlers: open mouth, insert food. We help him with the inserting, but he definitely has the puppy dog begging down.
I think that tongue reaching for the food thing might run in the family because I'm pretty sure I do that too.
