WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS.....BRIBERY

 
We moved today and moving and a 11 month old don't go hand in hand.  He didn't think it was quite as much of an adventure as the other kids did.  They thought it was fun to run around an empty house and load up a car.  By mid-afternoon Callen was done and what did I do?  I broke out the sugar.  In all sorts of colors, sizes and types.  Callen went from no sugar ever in his entire life to having a candy store at his disposal.  It was definitely one of my finer motherly moments.  I do have to say that he sat in his sugar laden high chair for at least an hour as happy as could be.  Was it worth it?  Absolutely.  Did I brush his teeth for a full 5 minutes that night.....um, no -   I was too darn tired!
 
Even messy he is adorable
 
It was hilarious to watch his first taste.....I will translate his facial expression for you....."chocolate - where have you been all my life".  I know that is what he thought simply because it is what I think every time I taste chocolate.  Great minds think alike!
