That's the sound you make when peanut butter gets stuck on the roof of your mouth. My dear little 17-month-old had his first real experience with this today. He was acting really solemn and kept putting his pointer finger in his mouth and wasn't flinging food off his tray like he does when he's finished, so I knew something must be going on. I looked in his mouth and discovered that his bite of peanut butter sandwich had adhered to the whole roof of his mouth. I guess that's what you get when you lick off all the jelly first...like he does EVERY time. I asked him if he wanted help and he said "yeah" (but more monotone than usual) and opened his mouth for me to dig it out. Then he took the soggy little mass from me and tried to eat it again, but I took it and threw it away instead. He was fine with that. He didn't have the energy to fight me because he was too near to falling asleep. It made me giggle.

Then he did it again after his nap with a Nutri-Grain bar.
