Shopping

Today the kids and I went shopping. We picked up a Styrofoam ball so that Lash can paint a model of the earth for a science project, and while there we picked up a couple plaster figures for Aeia and Rael to paint as well. Aeia picked out a kitten, and Rael picked out a puppy. They're all super excited to paint.

Outside the store was a plastic jungle gym thing, and Rael had to go down the slide. I let him go down once, and he asked for one more time, so I allowed that. Then, of course, he asked for one more time again, so I picked him up and carried him to the car. I forgot his monkey backpack with leash, which isn't currently in the car. It's really hard to carry Rael when I have Tasmia in the Snugli.

Then on we went to the grocery store where I somehow forgot to pick up milk and cereal. At least I got bread so we can have grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup for dinner. I also picked up fruit because Aeia's going to be taking lunch tomorrow because she gets to go on a field trip to the library.

I generally enjoy shopping with the kids, even though they all tend to want treats and special little purchases. They're kids after all.
