Elmo has to eat too

Jessica feels that Elmo needs to eat too -- maybe even more so than her dolls. He goes in the high chair and she tries to feed him -- both pretend food and real food. She looks at me quite perplexed when he doesn't eat the cheerios that she puts in his mouth. Of course, Duke and Mousse are thrilled by this as it means extra food for them.

And, yes, Jessica has two play high chairs. The second was meant as a replacement for the first, but she wants to play with both of them. The best is when she tries to cram all her dolls (more than 2) into the highchairs. She gets very upset when they don't all fit.
