what happens when i have to take all 4 kids to the grocery store

This ends up in my cart...





Seriously...

I don't really know how it happened. I mean, one minute Ainsley was screaming and I was opening a box of Nilla Wafers so I could give her a few with the hope of keeping her quiet for 10 minutes, because really, I just wanted to be able to make dinner for the next couple of nights. And then Ryan started freaking out because he was sure I was going to get arrested for opening a box of Nilla Wafers without yet paying for them, even though I assured him I would pay for them when we checked out and Jack kept asking if he could get a car (Hot Wheels - although I'm sure discussions about a real automobile are not far behind) and I think somewhere in the chaos, Emily sneaked in the, "Remember last time we were here and you said maybe we could try these crackers someday?" And the next thing I know, these are on the conveyor belt.

These kids are good. I'm quite sure they were giving each other high-5's in the car while I finished loading all the groceries.

And I could tell you that these really do taste like Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, but then I would be admitting that I tried them. Which I'm not going to do. And so instead, I will change the subject...

Hey, this is my 100th post!! Yay me!! (And you, of course, for reading! Yay you!!)

Well, they weren't totally vile, but for a good cheese cracker, nothing beats Cheez-It's! (Oh, Better Cheddars are awesome too, but I don't think they make them anymore!)
