We celebrate Mally Bird's 3rd b-day on Saturday. Amazing! And while we've been looking around in the thrift shops and Walmart we haven't found what we wanted to get her for her present. Tonight we decided to ALL go to Toys R Us after dinner.
The kids and I wanted her to have new kitchen set toys since ours are about 14 years old. Honey wanted to get her a new baby. The search was on. Up and down the precious pink aisles while the girls ooohhh-ed and awwww-ed and the boys patiently endured it. We found just the things we wanted. She fell in love with a soft baby that she's already named Ducky. And while she was turned looking at something else I took it from her lap and put it in our other cart. It's easy to be sneaky with a 2yo. We got her new food for her fridge and a pie that you decorate with toppings.
Then on to the boy stuff, the lego aisles, the sports, and the k'nex display that was a huge ball machine. How the boys loved that! Especially my robot loving inventor! Honey made lots of Christmas note ideas on his blackberry and we enjoyed looking at what all was new.
Everyone behaved wonderfully minus a short meltdown from Babyest. He lived though.
I took everyone to the car while Honey paid and then ran next door to Lowe's for texturing spray. We sang songs and the little ones took advantage of the captive audience to show off how well they've memorized their new Bible verse.
A fun family night.
