And I hate it when Jacob pukes in a car. He never tries to puke in a bag or container, he usually just pukes on himself. So every time we go on a trip, we have to bring extra clothes and Shannie sits in the back with him. Oddly enough, my son tried Fruitopia yesterday for the first time. And luckily he didn't puke.Jim Reevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12329621635433083054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822428166683371800.post-46620699607648958702012-08-24T09:48:23.296-05:002012-08-24T09:48:23.296-05:00Why haven't I thought of a tupperware with a l...Why haven't I thought of a tupperware with a lid yet?
