I thought I'd spend this pretty day out with my grandson for a bit. My daughter has caught a little bug and needed a bit of a break. So, since its a bit chilly (about 60 degrees) I thought I'd take him to a mall so he could walk until he drops.
We parked in the parking deck and I got him out....we went in Booksamillion because it has a great kids section....LOTS to look at and poke around. He is 20 months old, so just a toddler and doesn't pay any attention to much of anything.....just walks until he runs into something, then its like bumper cars and he just takes off in another direction.
Some lady thought he'd like to see her dog......nope, wanted nothing to do with that at all. I tried the puzzled on the table, he loved a couple of them so I bought him a few of them to take home with us. He was keeping up with the elderly walkers doing the laps in the mall for a bit.....until he took a sudden RIGHT into the hippy store that smelled like incense and had pillows with tassels thrown all about.
He took to crawling a few times trying to get under tables and escape into window displays....but I was NINJA quick with the granny skills and grabbed him up just in time. He ate almost as much teriyaki chicken as he dropped onto the floor in the food section (yes, I picked it all up) and he ate an entire cookie from the Great American Cookie Co.
He's saying little words now that MIGHT sound inappropriate at times....you can repeat a word all you want and he is NOT saying that word. Leave him alone and he will sing all kinds of things.
I dropped him back off at his house and his dad was there.....its amazing to see a little boy's face light up when he sees his daddy.
I didn't realize just how much he ran me today until I got home and got out of the car.....my back wouldn't straighten all the way and I was walking like a sloth until I got inside the house.
How people run daycares and such I'll never know.

When are you bringing him to Walt Disney World? It sounds like he is ready for a roller coaster ride.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
