Eggs

So...while Sienna was posing for pictures, Ahren decided to crawl around the yard. I looked over and saw this:

I raced over to see what he was eating (my thought was grass - this wouldn't be the first time). To my surprise I noticed something blue. I was not prepared for what had been in his mouth. He had eaten about 1/4 of a hatched robin's egg!! Who does that?!?!?! I called my grandmother and she called my aunt (a nurse) who informed us that robins do not carry salmonella and the shell would probably have dissolved in his stomach already. I was relieved, but still shocked that my baby had eaten an egg shell!!

Here is the remainder of the shell:
