After naptime, we drove to the mall, which is something we normally avoid like the plague. Neither of us are keen on crowds, parking lots or shopping. But we needed a new router and knew we could let the kids ride the carousel or do the bungee jumping as a reward standing in line at the always packed Apple store. The bungee jumping facility had closed, so the carousel it was.
Owen chose a chatty horse and Chloe chose a stoic bunny.
"Ha ha! You can't catch me, Chloe! I'm still ahead!"
"Better watch out, Owen. I'm inching up closer!"
Such a happy Beanarina. She just loved riding this Bunny, going up and down!
Riding a horse is tiring work. Think this boy could have used a nap?
She's contemplating world hunger and wondering why more people on our street don't recycle.
Owen is looking into the future and likes what he sees. He says he is never going to get married because he wants to live with us forever and ever. Owen amends that statement to say he will get married, but only if his wife can live with us, as well. Owen says when he grows up, he is going to work with Todd. There have been tears if we bring reality into the conversation and ask what he will do if Todd has already retired. We could not ask for a sweeter, more tender-hearted boy.
"Mommy, get me off this runaway bunny! I'm getting dizzy!"
I convinced her to stay on the bunny and she was happy once he slowed down. ;)
Whoops, the boy still had peanut butter and jelly on his face from lunch. Shhhh. Just look at his baby blues and ignore the fact his parents can't clean his face properly.
