At the end of our trip to the zoo, I bought the girls lollipops* or "wowwypops" as Caroline calls them.
*Side note: Steve made fun of me for calling them "suckers." Is that weird? Or is he just being an East Coast snob?
We don't really give the girls candy (that is not to say that we are health food nuts - they are no strangers to chicken nuggets, fruit snacks, etc.), but Caroline didn't need much convincing. She was extremely fired up about her first Tootsie Pop:
And then there was Lucy. She played it cool like she was a lollipop (sucker) connoisseur.
He's not being a snob; it is just totally mockable if one says: SUCKER! Did I tell you what Cate said the first time she had a Tootsie Pop?
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, you could also be an East Coast snob :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd no, I haven't heard that story. What did she say?
Touché!
ReplyDeleteSo she got a Tootsie Pop last Halloween, and that was the one thing I let her eat once we got one (yes, I am That Mom). So she gets to the middle and says, "Well, I wasn't expecting THAT!" and threw it out. Coop then went and fished it it of the trash can because, you know, wasted candy.
