Roman has been sick as you can see by his runny little nose, but today was a day that went down as a first for him. Abram gave him a sucker. I guess Abram felt sorry for him and let him have his. This made Roman incredibly happy, of course, and when he crawled his way into my eyesight, the stickies on his face had attracted everything on the way. I'm not sure how much of that solidified sugar made its way into his mouth, it looked like he battled the sucker and the sucker won.

The look you are seeing is one of disbelief that I took the nasty hairy sucker from his super sticky hand and tossed it. You see this round ball on a stick had been dragged along the carpet in a very chubby hand, and was not appealing to look upon, let alone lick. This was then followed up with a warm washcloth to clean his soft little face, including that runny nose.

Let's just say, I didnt score any brownie points with the baby. I think he will stay clear of me next time someone generously donates a secret sucker again.

P.S. Abram and I had a little chat about such gifts....hehehe
