Whole Apples and Corn on the Cob

Calvin regularly surprises us with abilities we didn't know he had.

... Suddenly he pushed himself from his belly to his arms ... one day he decides to crawl up the stairs ... the next, he's walking. There are always developments afoot; this one was food-related.

Sitting by the kitchen sink to wash up after romping in the great outdoors, he spotted a Granny Smith apple nearby.

Cal grabbed it and -- Plop -- right in his mouth.

He bit off a piece of skin, then another, and another .... After about eight little bits, he coughed and spit them out.

Grandma peeled it and gave it back. Calvin chewed on it for another hour, or two.

But he didn't stop there. Calvin had his first ear of corn for dinner; chomped the whole thing.
