Crawfish ya'll



We spent this past mother's day in Baton Rouge and finally got to enjoy a much needed crawfish boil.  It was Avery's first introduction to the tasty little mud bugs.  And of course, she loved them.  She did find a few of the batches a little spicy for her still developing palate, but she soldiered on and kept eating them.  That's our girl! 

Her cousin Nathan (a veteran at handling crawfish) showed her the wrangling and holding techniques for crawfish 




Can you see her eyes watering in this picture? Between that, grabbing her tongue and grunting, we were pretty sure that was her way of taking on and getting past the spicyness.


And like all little ones new to and still learning the ropes of the boil, Avery got her tails without having to do any of the work.
