Trip to the store...

So we went on one of our many trips to kroger a week(yes i make a list but w/ 2 kids you never know if you can get it all... hell your lucky to remember the list). I for whatever reason decided that today i would brave putting both children in the car buggy. Nathan insisted we get a blue one. I strapped little guy in and away we went. (yeah i seem to have skipped that part where i buckled nathan in...) So here we go... i realize in the veggie section i have a rear end of an elder child hanging out of a car and kicking his feet. Technically it was way past his naptime.. and i only needed 7 things so i just let it slide so we didn't have tears of sadness. In the canned good Jacob figured out he could honk the horn w/ his head and that went on for 2 isles.  I got all the way to the checkout when Nathan bolted out of the car and ran around the counter. There i found him hugging a 3 foot M&M display. The store manager almost wet his pants. Nathan proceeded to give the giant M&M a hug, a kiss and few high 5's. I tried to get him back in the car but the tears stared coming. He started to feed the M&M thats when i got this great pic. Needless to say we left the store w/ a bag of M&M's. AND THAT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN IS WHY YOU DONT USE M&M'S TO POTTY TRAIN YOU KIDS! I have a feeling i will be buying a lot of M&M's in the future! (thanks yvette!!) For those lucky people who live in Bryan/College Station.. if you enter kroger and hear a child yelling "BEEP" its just nathan simulating the me at the checkout. He also insists on "SWIPING" my amex when we pay. Lets just say don't do things you think are cute unless you will always think its cute!
 Then this morning in the mayhem of getting up late (or rather on time because i do it weekly) for bible study w/ barb, I was getting food ready for Jacob and asked Brian to make some toast for Nathan. Brian from the kitchen says " Why is there a rock in the toaster??" to that i replyed... "well I guess nathan put it there when he was placing the eggo waffle in the toaster the day before". See nathan collects rocks when we go on walks at night. Usually its dads job to take them out of the wagon.. well the night before just Nathan and i had gone and i forgot to take the rocks out. So apparently when i sat him on the counter to put it in the toaster ... old freddie fast finger (as i lovingly call him) placed his eggo and his rock in the toaster. Lets just say i take a while to wake up in the morning!!
