Grapes

So far the stories from daycare have been very entertaining. I got out of work early on Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday and I was so excited to be able to pick Bradley up from daycare and see him in action. Of course, every time I get the opportunity to pick him up he is eating when I get there so I don't even get to see him playing with the other babies. I noticed that some of the older kids were having grapes as snacks but he was eating Cheerios (his favorite snack) when I got there. About an hour after we got home I noticed he had something in his mouth so I fished it out. It was a half of a grape skin! How in the world did he get a grape and why does he still have the skin in his mouth? When I dropped him off on Monday at daycare I asked them about it and here is what they told me:

Miss Carol: "We didn't even give him grapes!"
Me: "I have noticed he is starting to pick things off of the floor now."
Miss Carol: "Yeah, he goes up to the table and picks food of the the other kids plates or eats what falls on the floor. He even goes up to the kids in the highchairs and they hand him food!"
Me: "Are you serious?" LOL
Miss Carol: "Yup, he is such a little scavenger that we have to lock him in the other area while we feed the other kids!"

At this point I am picturing him begging for food and having to be separated in order for him not to steal from the other kids. It is a pretty funny picture in my head. I wonder if that is why he came home on Tuesday with an incident report stating that he got bit on the thumb by another baby...
