I scream, You scream, We all scream for ICE CREAM!

37 babies, about 15 adults, one bus and a minivan...that's what it took to get the entire Baby House out for the morning. This was part of Erin's final wishes...or her idea to bless the tias and kids she has been serving for 2 years...whatever you want to call it. So we all piled in and took the babies for ice cream and a little play time at a park in the city. Here's what we looked like in the bus on the way...so funny!I have to say for 37 kids that live their life in a center and don't see the "outside world" too often they were extremely well behaved! The sat nicely on their mats waiting for ice cream. But this is when the funniness happened! Most of these kids have never eaten ice cream before. They eat plenty of candy and yogurt but never anything like ice cream. Too funny...just watch the different reactions of something COLD and sweet in your mouth...
Admira thought it was pretty tasty!Enoque was VERY excited!
Lucia wasn't too sure and tears came soon.Nemias was a bit timid but decided it was ok!Dionisio after some explanation thought drinking his was a good option!
In the end after all the ice cream had been consumed, it was time for group photos and then play time on the jungle gym! Altogether it was a fun day minus the end result that Erin leaving us soon. :(
Here is Erin with all of our Baby House tias...
