Straws and suckers


Natalie still loves going to Skyline, and now she loves washing it down with some water through a straw. Every time she sees something with a straw in it she wants a drink! She can really gulp down the water too. She much prefers the straws to a sippy cup.

We took her to the Home & Garden show this week, and she had a pretty good time. There were lots of large playgrounds to look at. Julie & I are trying to decide what we're going to get her to play with for the summer. Some of those pre-made playgrounds are ridiculously expensive. We'll see how the shopping goes.

While at the show Natalie spotted a basket full of candy. I picked her out a dum-dum sucker and she played with it for a bit. We then decided to take the wrapper off and see if she would try it out. It took a few minutes since she wasn't quite sure what it was, but once she got that first taste of it, it was all over. We gave her a few tastes, but apparantly we weren't moving fast enough because she eventually grabbed it and took charge. She pretty much left it in her mouth at that point and drooled strawberry flavored slobber all over the rest of the show. She loved it!

So, for the record her first sucker was strawberry flavored and she had it on March 8th. That fact will be good for your Natalie trivia knowledge.
