Our Grocery Store Adventure

We miss Dad. Darin is in Myrtle Beach on his annual golf trip. Getting this group out the door looking good can surely be a challenge - so I opted for just getting them out the door.



I had a couple of cute outfits picked out this morning and Megan insisted upon wearing her ballet outfit. Fine. Jake's jeans have the snaps on the legs to make for ease in diaper changing. They're actually a pain because Jake decided that he likes to unsnap them. Ok, so we've got the ballerina and the kid with his pants legs open. On to shoes......I tried to get them both into their Crocs. Megan decided on flip flops and Jake decided on rain boots. There is no changing their minds. Hmmm. Alright, coats. Jake's was fine. Megan just "had" to wear her winter coat - which she calls her fat coat.

We get to the grocery store and Jake buckled himself in. I thought, "sweet!" Usually he complains about the buckle and tries to climb out. He only kicked his boots off once in the store. Megan was pretty good. She just walked along accepting compliments on her fancy outfit. We made it all the way to the checkout without incident. Megan was helping to put items on the belt. Jake had gotten a hold of Kids' hand soap in a pump bottle and poured it all over himself and the floor. Apparently, the kids' soap doesn't have a kid-proof lid. Clean up at register 3.

I will say the soap smelled really good. It was like we opened up some potpourri in the car. It's not even noon - what will the rest of our day bring?!
