Chocolate Milk Mustache

I really like chocolate milk and drink it often with dinner. I decided I needed to enjoy it for the rest of the year and then start weening myself because I don't want Ava drinking it all the time (I want to be a good example). I won't give it up completely, but I won't be having it as much as I do now. I think once a week on a special day would be good...or maybe when Ava is napping.

This past week I was enjoying my chocolate milk and Ava was interested in it, so we gave her the last little sip. She loved it!! She got really excited and then pointed at it for more. When there wasn't any left she was upset and made her "I'm angry" grunting noise.

Then when the missionaries were here for dinner a couple of us had chocolate milk. Ava saw my glass and got really happy. She started pointing at it and made her "I want it now" sounds. It was pretty cute and funny, but not something we want to do everyday...maybe I'll start weening myself sooner.

Daddy giving Ava her first taste of chocolate milk heaven.
We use Hershey's syrup because it is the only real way to make chocolate milk...no powder in this home!!

"That was good! Please give me more!"
"Hey! I said I wanted more!!"

Well Bob and I would have to disagree! We hate Hershey Syrup. We are incredibly huge fans of Hershey powder Chocolate milk. We even had my mom send it regularly from Utah so we could enjoy it. Unfortunately they recently discontinued it! We are having major withdrawals and our Chocolate milk consumption has decreased significantly. Bob even wrote them an email. It is simply devastating.
