Teething is painful...and a little funny

Joey has been teething, which means that he doesn't want to eat and spends his time drooling and screaming. Last night, I got him some banana bread and set him in his chair. He screamed and screamed that he didn't want it. "No! No! NO!!!" But, the problem is, he really did want it, but he is a proud (and stubborn) boy. How could he swallow his pride and accept the offered banana bread without looking like he was giving in?
This was his ingenious solution. When he thought Frank and I had forgotten about it, he sat and ate with his eyes closed. That way, we couldn't see him. He managed to eat his banana bread and still maintain his cool. We just kept talking and pretended we didn't notice, but we were trying pretty hard not to laugh.
