Shop Til You Drop

This morning we went out to the stores. Nate needed a few things for the up and coming missions trip to El Salvador and Ben was a little short on shorts. Whilst in K Mart, Hannah and I decided to try some shoes on Josh.
These look perfect to me. I didn't buy them cause I'm afraid he won't be wanting his feet inside of shoes too much during the summer months and he's sure to outgrow them by the time the weather cools off again. I wanted to see how he "walked" in them but he had a tough time of it with his feet tied together. Instead of shoes, I found him a nice bouncy ball covered with colorful pictures of Finding Nemo. Josh was very pleased with my purchase and took it home to play ball with his daddy.

  1. This is so typically "Grandmaish" It doesn't go away, we find ourselves in the kid's sections all the time. Clothes or toys... humm or are we starting our second childhood?

  2. I think I was made to be in the kids section anyway. The toys though... I don't care for most of what I see out there. What happened to the "good ol' toys"?

  5. Blocks, floating letters for the tub, color books of baby animals, and lots and lots of story books, they are still there. Pull toy catapillars that chant the alphabet, lace up boards with buttons and zippers Carl is all over finding educational stuff. We got a David a "Red Checked Cookbook" for his birthday. Drives his mom nuts get the ingredients for the things he wants to cook. :D
