Marshmallow Memories


 Wanting something warm to accompany our movie night popcorn, we settled on hot cocoa.  Reaching for the marshmallow jar, I was reminded of a recent moment involving those very marshmallows.
Originally I bought them thinking they would be an adorable accompaniment to Jaxson's very first cup of hot cocoa.  

Shortly after Christmas, the big day arrived.
His very own snowman mug was filled half way with "warmish" hot cocoa.  One little snowman placed right on top.
As soon as the mug was placed in front of him, he peeked into the mug and carefully extracted that snowman.  I think the look on his face about sums up his feelings.

With that obstruction out of his way he could now get down to the business of tasting his hot cocoa.
A few short sips later...
 

Uh Oh... all gone!

 

 More please.


 Another first in his life.
We wondered what he would think of it.
The chocolate mustache says it all.
As does the snowman resting on the napkin.

  1. Adorable! He looks as if he likes that delicious beverage quite well. I am glad that you got the temp of the hot chocolate right. That makes a big difference and don't ask me how I know. Too bad about the snowman narshmallow, though, You win a few; you lose a few.

  7. Hello Kim,

    I love those sweet little marshmallow snowmen! And your little guy is absolutely adorable. Seeing the "Thomas" shirt he had on brought back memories of our grandson (now 17) when he was that age. He was a huge "Thomas" fan.

    Your little guy has the biggest eyes! Love the cocoa mustache! You are in for some very fun years as you go through a lot of this little guys "firsts"! The fun is just beginning!

  11. This has got to be one of the cutest marshmallow posts that I have ever seen! That little guy's face on the second to last picture, is priceless! I can tell you are enjoying your role as grandparents, and I enjoy walking through the journey with you. I will always think of Jaxson when I see blue snowman marshmallows.
