What I did was as soon as one of my daughters started tossing anything on the floor I picked up the piece right away and told them, "no, that's not nice." Then if they did it again I said, "okay, thank you. All done?"
Then I took the plate away with what was left of the sandwich. If I didn't it would have ended up on the floor anyway... Isabella managed to hop over to my clean stove and wipe peanut butter and jelly hands all over my stove. I very quickly pushed her highchair away from the stove and began to clean her off. She then starts saying, "eye...mouth...nose."
She's pointing at the eye, nose and mouth while she sounds out the words with her little sing song voice. Then she says, "hair." I said, "no," and stopped her before she managed to smear peanut butter into her hair. Another habit I'd like to break them of... Over all though, the highchairs don't look too bad today and I only stepped in one piece of peanut butter and jelly. :P
Isabella is the neater eater. Gabriella takes after one of her big brothers and her mother. Yes, she is a natural born slob. I remember when I was younger and in school and even as I got older no matter how hard I tried to eat neatly I would always come home from school with ketchup on my shirt or something like that.

She artistically paints her highchair tray, face and hair with whatever she is eating. Last night we had Raviolli's for dinner and she even managed to smear Raviolli sauce all over her leg. I wanted to cry, lol.
