Hayden has recently discovered how to describe foods he likes or dislikes in unequivocal terms that Mom and Dad can understand. Yummy and Yucky. There's also 'So Yummy' and 'Too Yucky' for those times when emphasis is really needed.
Here are some things that Hayden has classified as Yummy and/or Yucky.
YUMMY
Lemon Gatorade (so yummy)
Grape Gatorade
Apple Juice
Milk
Boogers
Chicken
Steak
Green Beans
Corn
Cupcakes (so yummy)
Salt and Pepper (mix)
Sugar (granulated or powdered)
Marshmallows
Eggs
Sausage
YUCKY
Dad's fizzy water (too yucky)
Broccoli
Brown things
Hayden (too yucky)
Turtles (the animal)
Pickles
Onions
Hayden's been burned by some 'yucky' stuff before. In fact, on the day this post was written, Dad tried to give Hayden some water in the car ride home from school - Hayden was clearly thirsty, but he was suspicious of Dad's offer. He looked at the bottle of water and said "is this yucky?" Dad knew what Hayden really wanted to know was "father, is this sparkling water or is it flat/still water?" The answer Hayden received, though, was "no Hayden - NOT yucky".
Hayden drank it and hopefully won't automatically distrust Dad next time.
