Scout spends her days climbing over Ozzy Pups and crawl-chasing Esme Kitty. Because she loves animals so much, I took her twice (with different “boyfriends”—Kiefer loves it when I say that) to a petting farm.
She especially loved the piggies.
No, I mean she really loved them. And they loved her. Literally.
Piggy Kiss!
Oops.
So was this a Mommy fail? On one hand, she was exposed to some dirt and germs to build up her immune system. On the other hand, ewwww! Germs!
Not to mention the future dating standards. What if Scout never meets someone who can kiss better than that pig? What if he set the bar too high?

If the boys don’t meet her standards, we can always get her a letter allowing her to have a pig as her emotional-support animal. http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/10/20/pets-allowed

Adorable! Not a mommy fail–it’s just too darned cute to be!

A giraffe licked my oldest in the face once. Have you seen a giraffe tongue? It was bigger than his head. And he turned out just fine. So far. I say you’re good. It’s nature. You can’t control it.

That is awesome!

Spoken as one who used to wade through the nearby slough with my siblings, these more novel kinds of exposure allow kids to beefcake up (totally a real verb!) their immune systems. Adorableness, BTW. 🙂

You might want to check this out on Snopes, but I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that a pig’s mouth is cleaner than the keyboard of a laptop. Eww…gotta hit “post comment” then boil my hands.

Good thing she’s too young for screens!

Hahaha the title of this post alone is hilarious! At least there is photo evidence for when she is older.

My parents took me to a lecture at a nuclear power plant. I think you’re safer with kissing pigs.

Germ-wise, Scout is probably better off kissing a pig. Just thinking out loud. Peace, John

Cute! Great photo, too.

Piglet isn’t so bad. Eeyore, he really needs treatment.

I’d be more concerned about how this incident might affect her future ability to enjoy bacon. I see therapy coming down the road.

This is the best. At least you didn’t take a picture of your kid with its head in a llamas mouth…right?

I figure she’ll call you in college to tell you she’s moving in with an 80-pound hog.
