Professional Gum Chewer

Emma was born to chew gum.  We use the gum as a "treat" to calm her down when she is looking nervous/anxious or when we need her to stay awake in the carseat.  She knows not to swallow the gum and will tell us when she is done with it or go and spit it out all on her own.  I know, it's crazy to give a 2 year old gum, but if you saw how relaxed Emma looks, chewing her gum and watching Barney in her carseat, you would be tickled.  Plus, Emma's already chunky cheeks and pouty lips get even larger when she is concentrating on chewing her gum...we hope those extra large cheeks never disappear!
