No the parents haven't given him anything sweet except fruit. Infact, they did a remarkable job. The mother nursed him over a year. And after nursing, he immediately drank from a cup. Never had a bottle! I find that amazing. He's such a happy baby, squeeling with delight at everything he sees, I would love to give him some chocolate...but no-no, slap my hand! His mama would kill me.

By the way, " A is coming back from Florida next week. Can't wait to see my Pumpiamkin! I wonder if she speaks German with a southern accent now. That would be cute.
