So what with today being the real first day of Spring and all, Rita's Italian Ices was doing a promotion where you could come in and get a free regular sized ice. Not being one to pass up free food, I took WeeBee along with me. I got him the lemonade ice, (figuring that if he dropped it, at least it wouldn't stain), and then got myself a strawberry banana one. WeeBee was insanely excited about it, and loved sitting on the bench outside the store and shouting "Hiiiii!" to everyone who walked by.
Well, he was about 1/3 of the way through his ice when he looked up at me with this adorably hurt and confused look on his face, whimpered "Mammaaaa," and keeled over face first into my lap. Poor little guy had an ice cream headache/brain freeze. It didn't last long, but he refused to finish his ice after that. Every time I offered it to him he'd grab his head and say "Nooooo."
Apparently my ice was ok, though, especially after he discovered there were little chunks of banana in it. So we swapped and order was restored to the universe.
Now if only this would teach him to stop inhaling his food like there's no tomorrow...
Italian ices...mmmmm!
