I always tell people I don't like the grocery store b/c I spend way too much money and I have no fun doing it. Your family is adorable. I LOVE that you had help carrying the groceries inside and putting them away!Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16946473078251300151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-59809218257651395612008-06-28T21:58:00.000-06:002008-06-28T21:58:00.000-06:00I have 3 letters for you.

So I couldn't imagine taking 3 with me to the store. Grace is pretty good, but she's getting too tall to be in the cart so she HAS to walk and her poor little legs are getting SO tired! Then the minute she gets home, what is she doing? Running all over the place. What happened to those So Tired little legs?!<BR/>Did you get a pic of the magic marker freckles?<BR/>Have a wonderful weekend.<BR/>BrendaBrendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14289590616497815887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-37268341311783328122008-06-27T21:34:00.000-06:002008-06-27T21:34:00.000-06:00I am wanting a snow cone, now!

They know the drill - which items we get, where things are. It's not too bad. Until a few months ago Ben rode in the cart, Ellie rode in the stroller and Will pushed her while I pushed the cart. I've been wondering how I'm going to manage when the 4th baby gets here!! I guess we'll go back to using a stroller also. I'd go in the evenings when Joel's home but by then I'm out of energy!!!Stephanie Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02976709475515458563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-62113317509365363702008-06-27T19:20:00.000-06:002008-06-27T19:20:00.000-06:00Shopping with kids is so not fun...even worse is t...Shopping with kids is so not fun...even worse is trying to push them in those awkward race car carts.
