We had such a funny experience with Lexie-well, maybe "funny" isn't the right word...
So for dinner we had yummy lime chicken. There was pineapple in it, which Lexie didn't want to try. We told her she had to try one bite and then she could have some ice cream with everyone. She agreed on having one bite-but insisted on everyone closing their eyes for it. After 2 attempts (she got mad the first try b/c I started laughing really hard), we listened to her climb off her chair, sneak over to the garbage can and then return to the table. There, she proudly announced, "I ate my pineapple!" We followed up this proclamation with many questions of our own. "So, if we look in the garbage can we won't find your pineapple in there?" "No." "You ate it all gone?" "Yes." "You aren't lying to us?" "Nope." "So we can go look right now?" "Well, you don't have to look, it's in my tummy." Needless to say, she didn't have any ice cream that night, but she did get a lecture on telling the truth.
