Adam walked in the door the first night they were here, after a late night at school. Riley ran and gave him a hug, but Izzy got a really sad look on her face... and burst into tears. It took all of the next day for her to warm up to him, and she'd react similarly whenever he'd try to interact with her.
But then came the popcorn.
Adam is obsessed with popcorn. He likes to make a GIANT bowl of it, douse it in butter and salt, and eat the entire thing himself. Seriously... I don't even LIKE popcorn much, and it disappears as quickly as it's made. Anyhoo, Adam made popcorn, and Jenna slyly suggested he share it with Izzy. You know, to build a bridge.
He got a small bowl, filled it with popcorn, and gave it to her. Then, Jenna said "Hey Izzy, why don't you go sit next to Uncle Adam?" ...and put Izzy's popcorn bowl on the floor, close to Adam's enormous one. We watched in anticipation to see what she'd do.
She picked it up.
She moved it closer.
She sat down.
And then this happened...
And this...
And even... THIS:
Somebody thank Orville Redenbacher. This is one for the record books.
And now, we interrupt our regularly-scheduled programming to bring you a snapshot of what it's like to be me. And pregnant.
Yes, that is my foot. Shoes don't fit... only a really WIDE pair of flats... bless their hearts.
And now, back to... nevermind. I wish I had more cute pictures of other peoples' kids... or just ONE of MINE!
Soon enough. Stay tuned.
