Fat and Happy

Out running errands with the kids one day,

I had a not-so-happy Fox in the back seat.

I jumped out of the car for a minute

to chat with someone on the sidewalk .

When I got back in it took a minute to realize

it was

quiet.

Really quiet.

Even Fox?

When I turned around

all 4 kids

were quietly munching on

suckers.

They found my stash!

Even Fox had one!

He was the happiest lil guy I'd ever seen.

He was pretty proud of himself

and just plain

giddy.

His very first lollipop!

It was like he knew a

secret

he wasn't going to share.

"Oh yea, that's the stuff!"

The funniest part,
to me,
was that he had his
little foot in his other hand.
The epitome of
"baby joy"
right here.




I have to add here
that the whole time I was taking pictures
the other kids were laughing
hysterically.
I think that added to his
giddiness.
Hearing them laugh at him and munch'n on his sucker.
