Back at the grocery

Rob recently introduced Ben to the "car cart" in an effort to keep him happy on a rushed trip to the grocery store. Up to that point, we had avoided this experience. So, today, when we were back at the grocery again, you can bet Ben wanted to get in that car cart.

Liam, (having never been to Disney World) thought he had won the lottery and was honking and waving at everyone we passed. It was a total riot.

Ben decided it was a bit too cozy in the coup and asked if he could ride on the top of the car "like I did when Daddy was with me". Hmmmm, interesting. So, after a quick look at the official warning label...

I figured, what the heck. If Daddy says it's ok, it must be.

Those were some happy boys. And, by the way, we went to the grocery specifically for Fruit Loops. Ben has seriously not stopped talking about those colorful Cheerios since he woke up this morning. It's been at least a year since we have had them in the house and he must have been having the worst craving because he wouldn't let up about it. I took them after their NAP (serious, another Double Bonus Day) and told Ben that IF he ate a really good dinner, he could have Fruit Loops for dessert. So, he rocked out on the din-din and then I have never seen the boy put away so much cereal. When I was tucking him in tonight, he said his belly was totally empty and he needed something to eat. Maybe he is about to grow an inch.

I love the progression of these pictures. First Liam watches Ben to see how it's done. Then in the next picture Liam more than has the right idea. These two could be a great stunt duo if Liam joins Ben on top of the car! Yikes! Who knew grocery shopping could be so much fun?!
