Last Sunday night after our softball game, we were hungry and nobody wanted to cook so we headed off for dinner to the Old Spaghetti Factory with my parents, sister and brother in law. It was past Leah’s bed time and she already had sat in my mom’s lap and her stroller for awhile during the ball game but it sounded like a great idea.
Leah did alright during dinner and was starting to get fussy just before dessert came out. I took her out of the high chair and held her on my lap for a bit before passing her off to Grandma once dessert came. This is when Leah decided she had to take matters into her own hands. Being tired and frustrated she helped herself to something her parents has been trying to keep away from her for at least another year. Seeing no need for a spoon or bib, she dove right in.
But after she had had her first couple of licks, I couldn’t deny her more ice cream with her sweet look of satisfaction. I do have to say there was no fussiness after that.
Your dad must have been beaming!
