Popsicles, please

Remember the fun of eating a popsicle on a hot summer day? Your lips turning red from the dye of a cherry one. Your teeth cold from biting into it? And even the major excitement when you were finally big enough to get both parts of the twin pack? Well, I guess the fun has officially started with new chapter of popsicle possibilities in our house.

Ally enjoyed her first icy treat this morning. A friend told me to get organic juice and dilute it for homemade treats. So I found a cute little set of (yes, BPA free and super-cute colors) popsicle sticks and went to town making some strawberry-mango ones. She did pretty good with it - the popsicle was quite small to start with, so her biting and slurping fun was fairly short lived! She loved it at first, but then the constant cold and sudden drippiness was a little confusing! But a success all the same!

Now if I could just get other Big Girl foods to go down so easy! Happy popsicle loving on this summer day!
