“Ice cold milk and…”

You know the jingle.  :-)   Aidan was having an afternoon snack just now and it occurred to me that he should be able to dunk his Oreos just like we do.  So I poured some of his milk from his sippy cup into a regular glass and let him at it. He was great at dunking! He did decide that one cookie deserved a full dunk!

The fine art of dunking OreosWell, if half a dunk is good a whole dunk is better!These are good!

Then something completely unplanned and unexpected happened. Aidan put both his hands around the glass and drank perfectly from it! I was so glad I had decided to take a picture of his dunking adventure and had the camera for this occasion!

Let me try this grown up glassProud of myselfI'm pretty good at it!!!

I successfully stifled anything inside me that was worrying about a mess or a broken glass and just enjoyed watching him. He was actually quite masterful.

Aidan, thanks for yet another reminder of why I love being your mom.

    Hey there, I saw your response to my comment on Monkey Mama’s blog and wanted to come here and say don’t let it get to you when people harp on you for your C-section. Obviously it was very much necessary! Cases like yours are when I am so grateful that we have such technology in this day and age to save mothers and babies. Yeah, it does get abused waaaayyyy too much (as it did with my son’s birth) but not every time. I’m sorry you’ve had to endure nastiness about something that truly was the best thing to do. Some people can only see in black and white, and I feel sorry for them.

    People harp on you because of your c-section? That is ridiculous. It was a stat section…It had to be done. Some people are just not so bright…..
