The little kids and I ventured out to Publix this morning and had a surprisingly pleasant shopping trip. Caleb wasn't even demanding at the cookie counter or at the balloon area. Thank goodness for those race car carts. They love those things. If only the carts had a partition between the two seats so the kids couldn't possibly touch each other, that would be perfect.

Caleb took another nice nap today. Not falling asleep in the car in Jamie's carpool line(because she is out of school now) has worked wonders for his nap schedule. I was ready for him to nap today, too. He managed to throw my folded laundry all over the floor(2 loads!), dump out a bag of Cheez Its, and open every stick of a new package of butter and throw them across the room as I was unloading the other groceries. He is a quick little thing.

Poor Carson had a rough afternoon at school. Apparently, he was playing Magnetix with his friend Chris and another boy from a different class. The other boy threw a Magnetix piece and hit Carson right in the eye. He went to the nurse and got an ice pack. He has a reddened area on his face below his eye, but his actual eye seems fine. Poor guy. He told me he was never playing Magnetix again. But then he quickly changed his mind and said that he would play Magnetix again, but only with people he could trust not to throw them. Smart kid. :)
