Last week, Harry took his first turn at the grocery shoppingwith me. We went to Wal-mart. Harry did a great job
and he enjoyed picking out a few of his favorites... a
bag of Ruffles and three bags of suckers! No
DVDs! :) He was the slowest with the cart...not really
even pushing unless I said to. At least he wasn't
running over me or anybody else! ha. It was
actually a pleasantly uneventful trip but I thought
I'd share anyway since I did both of his brothers.
I left the sunroof open, being a hot and sunny day, onlyto come out of the store to a torrential downpour!
No umbrella, slow walking boy, cart full of groceries,
soggy car seats,....ugh!

Harry was oblivious, of course, and just sat in a puddle
and open his chips. I wasn't so nonchalant about it! ha.
That rainy shot is starting to look very familiar isn't it? It has become a joke in our home that it rains every time I go to the grocery!
ReplyDeleteWell, if you need rain there, then you know what to do! He is a sweetie! :D
ReplyDeleteHe looks so innocent ;)
ReplyDeleteAt least he has his priorities straight, potato chips and suckers, what more could a person want ?
Lately it has rained everytime I go to the grocery store also, isn't it annoying !
Sweet boys, and one patient mum..
I like the way you take us one your shopping trips with each of your sons.
ReplyDeleteIt's like getting to know them as individuals.
Bless you Betsy!
They are each so unique and special. Its wonderful to get to share their lives.
ReplyDeleteWhat I think has been learned here...don't leave the sunroof open because if you're shopping, its bound to rain. I love that he took it all in stride.
I love these posts, shopping with the boys!
ReplyDeleteHe has it right though...a bag of chips that is about all you need right? :)
The Shopping tour with the boys has been great...they may be triplets, but they each have their only style don't they?
ReplyDeleteAt least the potato chips weren't soggy!
Nice post!
Uneventful it may have been, but Harry deserves his shopping post.

ReplyDeleteI was going to write along the lines of Wanda... What's a bit a rain & a soggy seat!!! a soggy seat is definitely not important when you've got a packet of your favorite chips to devour! It's all about priorities when it comes to boys!
ReplyDeletewhat has been cool is to see their various personalities through each of these posts and how very different they are...now will he share some chips. smiles. have a wonderfu 4th weekend!
ReplyDeleteHe really does have a sweet face. I wonder what it would be like to go shopping with my brother... Yikes! I wonder how long it's been since he was in a grocery store.
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of nice to go to the store once in a while and have it be uneventful:-) I love your stories about your boys and their shopping trips. You are a great Mom! I love how Harry is oblivious of the whole rain problem. A boy + his chips = contentment:-)
ReplyDeleteOh, rain in your new car. Not fun. But shopping with your sweet boy... fun! I love reading about your outings with them.
ReplyDeleteThey certainly do have different personalities! Harry will compliantly go wherever for as long as it takes. Spencer will fuss and try to be the boss, buy a lot of stuff, and run off on his own! Alex will actually be interested in helping pick out what's on the list, but will grab food from a stranger's hand! Yikes. I know who I can relax with and who I have to watch like a hawk...and how long we can stay out.
ReplyDeleteOf course it had to rain in your car, the day was going too well! Cheers to uneventful days and Ruffles!
ReplyDeleteHarry just might have the right idea about like,
ReplyDeletemaybe we should ALL calm down, sit in a puddle and eat some chips. Sounds like a good idea to me anyway. :)
Love the post! And Chips would make me a happy person, soggy seats or not.
ReplyDeleteI love the last picture of him eating his chips. There is a lot to be said for the uneventful....
ReplyDeleteIf you could only control the sun roof as well as you do the boys on your little excursions... Heh.
ReplyDeleteSilver Fox ~ Oh believe me, I've learned my lesson well!
ReplyDeleteWe'll see, we'll see. Looking forward to your next excursion. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you weren't. LOL Nice for harry to be though for his sake.
ReplyDeleteHe is to darn cute. He's really on to something with a bag of chips can fix everything.
ReplyDeleteI have been waiting for Harry's turn to shop. I am glad it went [almost] smoothly and I must say I am also a big fan of those chips - good choice!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the pictures of your boys, or I should say your five men?! It was neat to hear about their different personalities with the shopping cart too.
