Shopping with a Toddler

THIS IS WHY IT TAKES 15 MINUTES TO GET 1 THING AT THE GROCERY STORE !!!

I finally had enough and put her in the back of the buggy (YES, we call them buggies in Alabama, not shopping carts). There was a lot of crying and whining, so it took me a while to figure out that she was saying "my shoe, my shoe" and not "a Jew, a Jew" or "au jus, au jus" . Yes, we lost a shoe. The $52 shoe, $56 with tax (Remember, Mr. Lee, full retail?).

Frantic Mom racing through Winn Dixie searching for a shoe!

Found it. By the bouncy balls. Which we did not buy.
