1. I found him in our bathroom licking the toilet handle. Yes, full tongue extended, licking furiously. What the what? He felt very sad when I made him give up his tasty new treat and washed his mouth out with soap.
2. We have a gross pothole in our driveway that fills with water, rocks, and mud. Jude often splashes in it with a stick, which I'm cool with, to a point. The other day while I was laying down (why did no one tell me that a sinus infection headache is like being buried alive with metal splint shoved behind your eyes, cheeks, teeth, jaw, neck, and head?), I heard Mike exclaiming, "JUDE! NO! GROSS! SPIT IT OUT!!!" Come to find out, Jude dipped a rock in the muddy, nasty water and put it in his mouth and sucked all the water off with relish. Who does that?
3. He loves to lick the bottom of his shoes. It doesn't matter if they are muddy or crusted with foul items, he licks and bites them. And yet, I still kiss that little face a hundred times a day. He makes it tough not to....
Luckily, he knows the words, "ewwwweeeeee," and "pee-yewww," and "stinky" and isn't afraid to chase us around with a stinky sock or foul diaper chanting these words over and over.

Ugh! Luckily Eli hasn't been doing gross things like licking the toilet handle (at least not yet). He does make horrible concoctions with his food though. I hate to even look in his cup after a meal... UGH! It's a good thing they are so cute!
Sadly girls are just as gross. Everything still goes in Lily's mouth. Recently she started scrubbing the bathroom walls and sink with her toothbrush and then brush her teeth with it! Yuck! But as it turns out my kids are pretty resilient and fight those germs :) Let's hope they all grow out of it soon!
You're right little boys are gross. Liam tries to lick the track for the sliding door which has dead bugs, dirt, and other gross things. He too loves to chew on the bottom of everyone's shoes.
I am shocked he surprised the toilet licking experience. Shocked.
