Do The Dew

It's a well-known fact that at about six months old, all babies begin reaching for any and all things within their grasp. Bree is no exception. This afternoon while Richard was holding Bree, he was indulging in a diet Mountain Dew. Given that the soda can is bright and shiny and was within Bree's grasp, she reached out to touch it.



Bree is a very helpful baby. She was anxious to assist her daddy with his soda.




After all, drinking a soda is a job for two people and three hands.



When Richard finished his can of soda, Bree wanted it. Big surprise! But since giving an empty soda can to a baby is never a good idea (she could cut her mouth or fingers on the sharp opening) Richard sat her on the counter and gave her a new can to play with. As we all know, a full can of soda is heavy. Especially for a baby.



Notice the look of determination on Bree's face as she reaches for the can.



Almost there, baby!



Gotcha! Now how do you open the darn thing? How does the good stuff come out? Bree didn't know so she tried the only thing she does know: nursing it.



"I'm a model, you know what I mean..." Where's my paycheck? Bree is the new spokesmodel for diet Mountain Dew!



What do mean, diet Mountain Dew isn't for babies?




You mean it won't taste like Mama's milk?




Then I don't want it!


I'll bet you didn't know that Bree's new drink of choice is diet Mountain Dew. Okay, not yet. But if the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, someday it will be.


Love, Cara
