Reese's Very First Balloon

There is something magical about that little piece of rubber that inflates into a mysterious floating orb....or some may call it a balloon!!! I remember that I ABSOLUTELY loved balloons when I was little so when the kind lady at our local Trader Joe's offered to give little Miss Reese her very first one, I simply couldn't resist. And of course I grabbed the camera about as fast as I could! As you can see, she wasn't too sure at first....

But as she explore it more, she realized that maybe, just maybe, this new toy was pretty cool after all....but still didn't trust it fully.....after all, it was following her wherever she went....

But like most things, once she has a little while to explore and figure it out, she decided that Yes, this was a very fun toy indeed!!! In fact, we couldn't get it away from her when we had to go run more errands!!

Like mother, like daughter. Now, if only I could get the Trader Joe's lady to offer ME a balloon even when Reese isn't with me.....
