One of Riley's favorite things to do is to go get an ice cream cone from McDonalds. We do this as a treat for her or just because. And every time we go through the drive-thru I get the same look from the worker, they look at me like I am crazy for giving my 2 yr old her own ice cream cone to eat IN THE CAR. I just laugh because there is no way she will let anything happen to that cone, so why would I be worried? Car-seat covers can go in the dryer. I just think that it's important to let a kid enjoy being a kid and being messy.
Another funny part to this scenario is every time Riley's cone needs to get licked cause its dripping I ask her if she wants to switch with me. She will always switch with me the first time I ask cause she knows its too much and she can't get it. But after that she realizes that her cone is bigger than mine, so when I ask I get a quick response "Nope!" She's not stupid. :0)
Excuse the CRAZY hair, this was after a nap! Messy kids are happy kids right?
