Chasing the Dragon

I think I have mentioned before that Mr. DD and I have a penchant for rocket lollies. The entire top drawer of the freezer is full of them. When we run low, Mr. DD instructs me to go and gather new materials for our space program. luckily, they are only 1/2 a point according to Weight Watchers, so you can stuff yourself with them and still feel okay about it.

The Prawn has also developed a worrying fondness for them. It started when she was terribly grumpy about things that were occuring in her gum region and thought we'd give her a little cold treat. But I believe we have now created a small sugar shark and are going to be forced to get a bigger boat.



I am now forced to share my rockety bounty with my daughter.



After some thought, we decided to try her out on a yoghurt lolly instead. The resulting scowl and Colonel Sanders goatee were too good not to document.

She is beyond adorable.

Just wait until she can crawl/walk to whatever food any adult in the vicinity possesses...

Just wait til she can understand words. All I have to say is "ice cream" and my kids come running, hands outstretched, and eyes wide open in anticipation...lol. Its a good thing we only have it once or twice a week. :-)

Prawn is soooo cute! Thanks for the pictures.

Oh my, that would be a big NO on the yogurt lollie!!!

I must admit, she actually DID eat the yoghurt lolly with some gusto. The scowl was resulting from her father taking flash photographs of her. But it makes a good little photo essay. :)

That's hilarious about the scowl resulting from the pictures and not as much about the lollie. It did make an excellent post though and she is a major cutie.
