I’m copying Josh Porter by writing a little about the fairly new vanilla Frosties at Wendy’s. I think they’re pretty good, if you like plain vanilla-flavored things. Supposedly they’re trying to target young adults by having a new breakfast menu and introducing this vanilla Frosty. Seems ironic because usually young people seek for flashier things, not more plain and simple things. But whatever, some people don’t like chocolate (heaven forbid) and also it’s nice to choose which flavor rather than always getting the predictable chocolate Frosty. I think this vanilla one basically tastes like soft serve ice cream, or a chocolate Frosty with vanilla rather than chocolate flavoring. No matter what, it beats a plain vanilla shake from any of the other fast food chains! Go ahead and try one today! (Wendy’s should pay us for this.)
What a clever child our little Chase has grown up to be. I feel very motherly writing about this, so that title was kind of a joke. But kind of not, actually. Chase has some entertaining new tricks! He can now hold onto his toes with his hands when he’s lying on his back or sitting. It’s really cute! He grabs onto things all the time, such as my hair, and won’t let go (now I know why mommies like to chop off all their hair). He gets fussy at times, and the only thing that will console him is going outside. But he also laughs more now, especially when Pace comes home and puts on a little “Daddy Show”. He seems to get a bit bewildered when we’re around lots of people though, because he won’t smile and definitely won’t laugh when we’re in groups or crowds. He pays attention when I read stories to him, especially when I sing the book “I’m So Glad When Daddy Comes Home”, which was given to him by Grandma TMom. He drools a lot, blows bubbles with the drool, sucks on his lower lip, and goes “bbmbmmbbbmbmm” with his lips (like the car sound). He also slept through the night last night for the first time in quite a while! I hope that’s a little trick that he will continue to do. Another thing is that when we lay him down on his back, he raises his head and his legs up off the floor, as if he’s trying really hard to get up and walk around. It’s pretty funny. But at least he’s giving his abs a workout– cause he’s definitely turned into a little chubberboy!
