Bug Sucker

On Christmas Day, we spent the morning with Lois Andersen (one of Greg's relatives) and they we Skyped with the Florida Carlsons as we opened gifts. After that, we headed up to Robin and Irene's house in Amery, WI. It was a great day but the highlight of the day came when Chris ate a sucker. Not just any sucker... a bug sucker.

Janis had asked me if she could give Meredith a sucker she got at the Science Museum that had a cricket in the middle of it. I told her to go ahead and that Mer probably wouldn't want anything to do with it. A few minutes later, Meredith comes running up to me all excited and asking me if she could eat her sucker. She didn't realize there was a bug in it. I asked her if she really wanted to eat a sucker with a bug in it and her smile went away and was replaced by a look of disgust. Then she was so upset she began crying.

To try to cheer her up, we told her to go give it to her uncle Chris to see if he would eat it. He started off sucking on it but nobody thought it would go as far as it did.


She was excited to see him sucking on it.
The faces she made. LOL.

Here is the video for you enjoyment. The things that an uncle will do to impress his niece. The good part is about 1:30 in.
