So the story behind Lucas' love/hate relationship with popsicles
is that at around 9 months, we gave him one, and he held it
like he was born with it and scarfed it down. We thought it was
funny so gave them to him all the time. David started noticing him
wincing when he ate them, even though we had to hold him back
from eating big chunks. We finally figured out he was getting
brain freezes from eating too much, too fast!
The end came when he freaked out as I gave him one, then
screamed when I took it away - he wanted it, but was scared of it...
so no more.
Now here he is having one after a long time of not
having any. He is being extra careful not to get too
much in his mouth or let it touch the roof of his mouth...
Hee. Hee.
(ps. It's a little long, but I tried to spare you all 45 minutes!)
