Proof that I do LOVE bananas!!

Well, I know I wrote awhile back about how much my son LOVES bananas, but I'm not sure my story gives his obsession justice. You see, this goes beyond just a "hey mom, look...a banana...I bet that would taste good" to "OH MY GOSH!! There is a banana!!! I must have the most delicious tasting food on the planet right now or my whole body will shut down!" That's just a short summary of what I think his sweet little brain is saying. I have been wanting to get his banana "love" on video but just haven't captured a good moment yet. However, Mawmaw and Daddy John recorded some sweet footage last weekend that I will upload as soon as I get it from them. But for now, I decided that a series of photos might show you a glimpse into how the banana "love" works in John world. :)

Since Barry and I were out of town this past weekend, we didn't get to do our normal grocery run on Sunday afternoon so we could pick up food, and of course fruit, for the week. This meant we were pretty much out of everything. On Wednesday afternoon, I think it finally dawned on John that he didn't receive a banana all week because as soon as we pulled up in the driveway, he started saying "nana..nana" over and over. I knew I was going to the store that afternoon, so that just made me speed up! :) When we walked in, I made sure I grabbed a lot of other groceries first since I knew once we hit the banana aisle, we would be stalled for a bit while he had one. :) This is where the pictures below come into play....I've added a little naration just in case you were wondering what he was thinking. Heh! Heh!

Look mommy...I think those are bananas!! See, right there...where I'm pointing.
Oh my gosh!!! They are bananas...I just heard mommy say the word!! I'm so excited!
Time for a delicious bite....I definitely dont't want a puny bite, so here I go!
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM....that is so good!!!
I don't want any delicious morsels falling out of my mouth, so I better push them back in with my fingers. There's been a banana ban in my house lately, so I better enjoy it while I can. :)

I hope everyone enjoyed the mini slideshow...now you can understand a little more on why I love talking about John and bananas. :)
