I am not sure what it is about ice cream, but she's never really liked it. Since she's on the petite side, we have been given the okay by the doctor to feed her as much of the stuff as we want to. The only downside is that the girl won't eat it!
Funny story...one day we walked down to Dairy Queen on our way to the park. It was a humid day...perfect we thought for ice cream. We placed our order, got our cones, and headed outside. We were hopeful that this was the time that Tabs was going to like the stuff. We sat her down and brought the spoon up to her and "AAAAHHHHHH....NOOOOOOOO!". All I have to say was good thing we were outside. I am sure that people think that we were doing something bad.
We are about 1 for 100 attempts in her eating ice cream. I have been successful once. On a particularly good day after a visit to grandma and grandpa's house, a great time at a restaurant, we came home and had a little time to play. Tabs thought that she should reorganize Fred's unopened treat bag, so I decided to sneak a bowl next to her. I walked away and pretended that I wasn't watching. Amazingly she ate it, picked up the bowl and asked for more. After three bowls she was done (and probably had a stomachache to go with it--yes, mother of the year award again). Since that time however we've been unsuccessful.
Oh well, she's related to James and me, so she's bound to love the stuff...one day. Until then...it cuts down on our costs at Dairy Queen.
