Tomatoes are in!

After a long weekend and grandma's, Cruz came home to check on his garden and found 3 ripe grape tomatoes ready for the taking. After we picked them off the vine, it was so awesome to see his excitement as he ran around the yard, clutching to his new treasures. We finally got him to put them into an old plastic plant pot so he wouldn't squeeze them to death. He would not let go!!!

After another 10 minutes of running around with the tomatoes in the pot, we took him inside and he washed and dried them himself. When we told him he could eat them, he ran to his little toddler table and waited patiently as we sliced the tiny tomatoes. I was so surprised and delighted to see that he ate every last morsel. He normally hates the texture and taste of tomatoes (store bought) but I think he really enjoyed these.

I wish I had taken photos - it is truly too cute for words to describe.
