Party Animal & Shopaholic

I would say that from a two year olds perspective this has been a pretty cool weekend. Friday night he got ride the carousel in the mall and stay up late playing with daddy. On Saturday he went to a birthday party for his new friend Cali. Forrest Jr loves birthday parties! We told him the night before that we would be going and it was the first thing he asked about when we he got up next morning. On the way to the party he told us that he was going to the party for cake. He had a blast running around with the kids and eating cake and ice cream. He was so pooped out that he went to bed at 5:30pm! Sunday mornings are always the highlight of his week since he can't wait to get to church and play with his friends. This Sunday morning was even better because we went to Dunkin Doughnuts before church and he had doughnut holes for this first time. So after nap time today Daddy worked on his car and mom was in the mood to go shopping at the outlets. I took little Forrest with me but I wasn't sure how long he would last. After spending some time in the Christmas Tree Shop I really wanted to stop by Carters. As we got in the car and I was debating whether or not to try for one more store, I heard a little voice from the back seat say "I need more stores". Hallelujah! It's what every mother hopes for a little boy who loves to shop. And the extra stop was worth it, the sales were amazing. Good weekend.

Well, maybe he got the same gene his uncle Sam got. Remember he used to love to go to Wal-Mart. Enjoy it while it lasts. They seem to grow out of it when the testosterone hits!
