This Gift Was A Hit

Posted on February 19, 2009 by Mandy

Cracked Daddy said, “What the ???”

My own dad just rolled his eyes and shook his head.

BUT. E.B. loves to go shopping with me and he loves pushing the “wagon” (also known as a shopping cart…I have no idea WHY this child calls it a wagon) around the store. This is probably due to the fact that we have to read this book every night before bed(which was recommended to me by Maggie, Dammit).

In any case, this little shopping cart has had many miles put on it around our house since Sunday afternoon and poor Corduroy is drunk from all of the bumpy rides.

    We have one too….and the kids love it. Not a day goes by that one of them isn’t pushing it around!

    What’s even better is the one we have is Hubby’s from when he was little 🙂

    I can see how that would be a much-loved present. Does it steer straight?

    It’s always so interesting what kids (and adults, too) experience that really strikes a cord with them. Neat post, Mandy!

    That’s a great present and we love the Llama Llama books too. We haven’t read Llama Llamma mad at Mama yet. We’ll have to check it out now.

    Aww that is awesome. My son had one of those when he was younger, and also a primary color kitchen set AND a purse he would take from me and high heels. OMG my husband flipped many times, but I told him this was normal… but 14 years ago men were very scared of this behavior.
    Now my son loves to cook, and I know he can survive on his own LOL

    AH! We had the same one that lasted through my younger two boys (now 10 and 5). It kept them busy MANY of day.

    It’s also a great FUN way to get them to pick up their toys all around the house!

    So cute!
    You are NOT alone. We held a birthday party at my house for one of the kids little girl cousins. She got a shopping basket with lots of goodies. My toddler son played with that ALL day. I can’t wait to get him his own! LOL

    My son would love that too! Even better it says Walmart, since we’re there three or four times a week. 🙂
