Our little Hayden is fascinated with what is inside of things and under things. He is especially taken with what is inside the body. It occurred to Claude and I that we have a Jello mold in the shape of a brain. "Why do you have that?" you might rightfully ask. For the life of us, we can't remember why we bought that item. Ironic isn't it that we can't remember why we bought a brain Jello mold. But, again, I digress...Since Hayden is fascinated with the inside of us, we have wanted to make a brain Jello mold for him. This weekend we remembered to take it to La Grange. While the testosterone filled portion of our family went in search of dinner (the pizza), they stopped at the store for ice cream. We called and had them bring the Jello and frozen raspberries. After the kids went to bed on Saturday night, Michael made his first batch of Jello ever. We filled the brain and let it chill until lunch time on Sunday. After carefully removing it from the mold to a plate, it was just amazingly great fun to have Hayden and Bailey enjoy a Jello brain.
Thanks for helping Hayden safely explore a brain. Hopefully this will squelch his desire to open his head and check out his own noggin!!!
