Walmart shopping

I has a few errands to run today, and I don't usually take the boys.  There is definitely a good reason for that.  They were pretty ruthless at the Walmart, and I ended up leaving with only half of my list and a few things (Dora toothbrushes and Spiderman crackers) that were not on my list.  I tried to get out of there pretty quick, once I realized they were about to melt down.  We chose Walmart, since it was walking distance to Chick-fil-a.  That seemed liked an easier option than loading them back into the car to go somewhere else.  So, we went to Chick-fil-a, and they had the time of their lives playing in the kiddie play area.  They had a few chicken nuggets and waffle fries, and then we headed home.  I am enjoying spending the day with them, before heading to MS for a little weekend visit with my mama.  Wish I could take one of the boys, but they'll get to spend the weekend with Dada this weekend!  He will love that!  He loves anytime with his little boys!

Just a few more random thoughts--
Will, once again, found a stranger to sit with.  This cracks us up.  Last Friday, Will found an older couple and decided to crawl up in their laps and sit with them and help himself to their chips.  The couple really loved Will.  The man entertained Will for a while by spinning his wedding ring on the table.  Today will crawled up and sat with another woman and her daughter.  He gets the biggest smile on his face, and he seems to think that is what he is supposed to do.  He has yet to get turned down, and most people are pretty entertained by our social butterfly.  

The other random thoughts are about Mr. Andrew.  The other day he said "Stop Dada...don't do that...be nice!"  That always put a smile on our face, because he doesn't ever want Mama or Dada to discipline anyone.  He reminds us to always be nice!  Such a sweet Andrew!  He keeps us in line.  On another topic, he is getting really good at mimicking words and remembering things that he only hears once.  Today, we were driving around the temple, and he said  "skyscraper."  I had never head him say that.  I called John to tell him, and he said that Andrew had just learned that word last night, and that he had only heard it one time.  Good job, Doobers!

Sam is really great at repeating all of the words on his favorite cartoons.  He can say almost every words along with the person on tv.  I think he gets that from his Dada.  Wish I had that good of memory!  It would come in handy!
