| Hmmm...a rare vintage, I'm getting a hint of apricot...maybe a whiff of late Summer white peach... |
So far we've introduced him to gummy bears and lollipops. Of course, being the anal, over-protective parents we are, they are made with only organic fruit juices and no preservatives or high-fructose corn syrup. But let's face it. Candy is candy.

Judah hates to eat so we sometimes bribe him with candy.

| Lollipops are amazing! I've never been happier in my entire short life! |
Recently we've been giving him one lick of a lollipop for each bite of food. I've never seen his face light up so brightly as when we place the lollipop in his hand for a lick. These pictures do not do it justice.
I guess I'm not surprised.
My earliest memory involved savoring candy. As a toddler I had frequent reccuring dreams about a giant bag of candy hidden in my house somehwere. I was almost lured away by a kidnapper once who was offering me...you guessed it...a bag of candy. And oh yeah, I used to hoard it under my pillow.
Apparently inordinate love of candy is genetic. I just hope the kid also inherited my robust cavity-repelling teeth. He's gonna need it!

No, the photos do not do it justice. I've never seen Judah so happy and content as when he's sucking on candy. I think he enjoys the novel form as well as the taste.
Haha that's so funny! When I was little, my mom would always hide our candy during Halloween...EVERY YEAR. Until she gave up one year because I would always find the stash. And she would always hide them in her car trunk. Even after I found them year after year...
And also, when I was little, my mom threw away a lollipop in the trash can. I wanted it, so I went to the trash, and walked into the living room (full of guests mind you...), with my hands over my eyes, lollipop in mouth. I thought if I couldn't see them, they couldn't see me...
Fail...
I'm such a fat kid. Haha.
Kristen loves lollipops too! We frequently bribe using m&ms as well
Ha ha Kari! You were such a funny kid!!!
Joy--Good to know I'm not the only one using candy bribes!
