I was in Cedar Falls visiting my parents this week. It was three days filled with parks, playing outside, and a visit to the library. We also had ice cream for lunch two days in a row.

I had never let the kids eat anything other than a healthy (ish) lunch before. Their minds were blown. My mind was blown on Wednesday when I saw how bad Elliot was at eating ice cream. At one point he thought the ice cream was too cold so he started eating the bottom of the cone. It made a huge mess.

Luckily he appears to be a fast learner when it comes to ice cream. He was much cleaner today.

Now it’s back to normal for Elliot. I wonder how many lunches it will take before he eats vegetables willingly again.
