Need to borrow:

one small dog with large appetite in Queens, NY.  I will borrow 4 x per day and return well fed from high chair discards - balanced diet, all home cooking.  Would prefer if dog had Pledge-secreting tongue. 

Alternatively will swap dog for one charming 11 month old baby boy to save the back-and-forward travel.

Am open to hearing your alternative swaps.

Will offer Babytooth. She likes to eat stuff on floor. Put Babyshore in chair, put Babytooth on floor, feed both babies at once.

I have joked about borrowing the dog next door to assist with post-meal clean up.  :) Thankfully, the throwing-spilling phase seems to be mostly over.

Now that he is finally asleep I'm feeling less like handing him over to a random stranger from Craigslist, even if barter is a Mustachian solution, and even though I like dogs ;)

However, serpentstooth's idea also counts as Mustachian; maybe that is a better idea because really, babies are darn cute and probably better to keep them.  But Babyshore also throws cups.  I hope Babytooth can duck fast.

We can let the babies fend for themselves and eat chocolate and drink wine in the meantime. A+ parenting.

Put high chair on a clean plastic sheet.  At the end of the meal, dump contents of sheet into bin to save for next meal.

If you are irked when creatures fling and waste food, never get a parrot.
