Almost every Friday I take Evan to the DI. It is the store where we practice "holding mommy's hand" and "stay close to mommy." It is the best store for that because no one looks at you weird if you abandon your cart for misbehaving toddlers and if your child throws merchandise it is no big deal. I let Evan find something in the toy section most of the time and enjoy searching through the toys myself. People that know me well know how much I love kid toys and books. I have been buying them before I even had a kid. For awhile I have been searching for a toy vacuum because Evan loves them when we go to somebodies house and they have one. To our amazement there were 3 at the local DI and this is the one he chose. It wasn't the tallest or in the best shape but it had the best "vacuum" sound and he carried it through the whole store. He had a small tantrum when we had to pay for it but let me put him in the cart while he held it to the car. In the car he held it while we drove to the park for lunch. The above picture is his joyous face when he woke up from his nap and rediscovered it. The below picture is him turning it on to "vacuum." (As a side note: those aren't bruises on his feet, they are his sandal tan. He is incredibly dark there because it is the spot I forget to put sunblock on)
