Tomatoes! I'll give ya $5.00

Lauri and I both hate tomatoes. Everyone has been giving us a hard time because that means Emma will never have them. Well we wanted to silence all the critics and prove that Emma would not like them either. Because in all honesty, they are gross.

My Dad would always tease us as kids by saying "I'll give ya 5 bucks if you eat a tomato." Well it is time to pay up.

You be the judge. As for us, you will probably still never see a tomato in the veggie drawer of our fridge. (Or is it a fruit?)

4th of July

Happy Birthday America!

Emma enjoyed her first 4th of July B-B-Q and fireworks. The fireworks impressed her for the first few but then she soon lost interest and found that the grass was more fun to play with.

However, the real excitement was found in the watermelon. We gave her a wedge to take a taste of and no sooner than we gave it to her she had it engulfed and ready for more. She absolutely loved it!!! We couldn't keep up with her. She would get to the rhine and keep going. When we tried to take it from her she wouldn't let go! Needless to say she loved it. I am not sure how much made it in her stomach though, because she was drenched in red juice afterwards.

So next time you have watermelon, try it Emma's way; shoving it in a wedge at a time leaving no time for air.
