An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

With his 3rd cold and ear infection out of the way, Des is back to his happy, healthy self and he sure doesn't want to get sick again for awhile (and neither do we!). So he decided to take the old adage "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" to heart. With his new found top two center teeth, Des crawled over to his Dada and took a bite out of his apple. He was happy to be nibbling on this healthy snack while watching some Sunday football with his Dada.

We also let Desmond indulge in a "not so healthy" snack when he decided to sample some of his Dada's popsicle. We bought these popsicles, along with jello and pudding, for Stella to eat during her recovery from her tonsillectomy, but Stella had no interest in any of these. Des was sure happy to sink his teeth, literally, into the popsicles as well as the jello.

If you haven't noticed, our boy is a food lover and without a doubt, if you are ever eating food, he knows it and will crawl over to you, pull up using your leg, and beg for food. He will taste it a few times to see if he wants more or if he doesn't like it. Some of his other antics include pulling stuff off of the dinner table (like juice boxes and Stella's glass full of juice) and throwing his sippy cup off of his tray when he is done with it.

While Des was enjoying his sister's popsicle, poor Stella girl was just hanging out on the couch next to her Dada, watching her favorite show...Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

She's saying cheese in this picture but doesn't want to take her eyes off of the TV.

Amamma and Appachen left Sat morning. We didn't take many pics due to everything else that was going on with Stella's surgery but Dada managed to take a few pics of Des enjoying a shoulder ride with Appachen.
