Tattle Tale

Skylar told on me yesterday.

We really encourage her to talk and 'use her words' but yesterday I was rethinking this philosophy.

I took Sky to the grocery store for a couple items and although she insisted on sitting in the big cart and directing me through the store, it was uneventful. Until we left. That is when she caught sight of the "choo-choo's".

'Choo-Choo' refers to the shopping cart with the steering wheels for kids. Whoever invented these do not have children because they would have realized their mistake. Great distractor, yes. Good for shopping, NO. They are impossible to steer (I hit displays everytime). Their cart is too small so you can't fit anything in the shopping cart. So everytime we have to go to the store...I secretly say a prayer that Skylar won't see them.

This time was fine until we left. And then she saw them. And she started. "MY CHOO CHOO", "MY CHOO CHOO". "ME GO CHOO CHOO" "ME GO CHOO CHOO".

I happened to be dialing Ryan as we walked so I handed her the phone and she proceeded to tell on me. " MOMMY NO CHOO CHOO DADDY" " MOMMY NO CHOO CHOO" "I CHOO CHOO DADDY I CHOO CHOO". Now pic this sweet little thing screaming these words and shaking her head with attitude as she walks.

GOOD LORD....WHAT HAVE WE DONE!!!
