It has been very, very hot here in south Texas. We have had record breaking temperatures in the Houston area making it less than enjoyable to be outside. We have been pretty good about going outside from about 6-7 so the kids can play and burn off some of that energy! We stay cool by eating a lot of popsicles!
I decided that Trace needed to join in the fun one evening. He refused to hold the popsicle by the stick so he was shaking because it was so cold.
Hmmm….what is this cold thing!
He seems to be enjoying it
YUMMMM….
Here is what happens when Mommy decides to take the popsicle out of his hand so he can hold it correctly and finish it…
As you can see this didn’t end well. He held his breath until he turned blue. I took him inside to bathe him and he continued to scream. He screamed while I got him dressed and he even screamed while I rocked him to sleep. My neighbors who were sitting in my drive way could here him the whole time…so glad they were there to witness the popsicle scene! 
After this incident I will say he refuses to hold his own popsicle. He is as stubborn as his Daddy…and maybe his Mama too!
