This is great! I too get tired of the "Are they all your's question?" or in Germany "Vier Kinder?!" (4 children?) I remember trips to the commisary that seemed like this! Now they are all actually old enough to leav HOME!!! yeah!!

Too cute, thanks for sharing this. I have 3 kids...2 teenagers and and an 8yr old. All during summer vacation, they wanted to tag along to the grocery store for "something to do"...you would think the teenagers at least would be helpful, but no. My 14yr old son realized that "Non alcholic beer" is in the store and incessently pestered me to buy it for him...I was afraid other customers were assuming I had a "recovering alcholic teen" on my hands. And even with teens they still bicker and throw junk food in the cart when I am not looking....although, the one blessing that did come from them tagging along...the 2 teens would help unload the groceries for checkout, put the bags in the cart and load the van and bring the bags into the house....I am thankful for that!

I only have 2 and it was really hard going to the store when they were both toddlers. By the time i loaded them in the car and put the groceries in I was pooped and of course i would find something that was unpaid for in the bottom of the cart cheese or other odd things, but i was bad i wouldnt unload the kiddos from there seats. i would go home and put it on the list of things unpaid for the clerks knew me quit well at our regular store, so i would take a duplicate of what was at home up and have them ring it up and pay for it. I can say i havent had anything that didnt belong in the cart for a long time(knock on wood).

What I love is getting home and realizing that items made it into the diaper bag. My 3 year old is a little too helpful! Usually I catch it when I'm unloading the grocery cart into our van and then we walk back to the store and hand the Wal-mart greeter the unpaid for item.
Funny blog!

That was hysterical, I gotta go read her blog and yes she should write about her adventures. Sound familiar to any of yu, grocery store trips with kids can just plain wear ya out....lol

Enjoying life.

I'm reading her blog and all the comments....tons of them! She's somewhat of a phenomenon that's going worldwide. It's amazing that that (is that right??) auction drew a lot of attention. I got the link this morning from another forum, then posted it on this forum. It's amazing how the internet gets the word around, and quickly!
