Yesterday she was only 2 stickers away from a complete chart. Obviously we were saying: "Only 2 more times, 2 more! And we'll take you tonight to pick a toy!". Finally at about 6pm she completed the chart. We danced, screamed, hi-5'ed, the works... then we got ready and headed for Toys R Us. She even took her chart with her, which I thought was a very good idea. That way we could remind her why we were there.
We asked for the Dora the Explorer section. If you've read my past posts you might now she is obsessed with Dora. It turns out they had a total of 5 toys, 4 of which were the furniture for the Big 'Ol Dora House, which we don't have. We continued looking for things she liked. Got to the book section, she looked at several then put them down again. Pumpkin does have a lot of books, probably more than 20. I guess she might become a bookworm just like her mommy? Actually JA is very happy about that because he barely reads. So anyway, she saw a Dora coloring book, one of those that have watercolors and she got that one. We kept looking through the aisles and got to the Little Tykes section, she has several of them. We let her make the decision, which one do you want Pumpkin? The airplane? The book? Or the car with the camper and tables and dolls? And isn't she a smart girl... This is what she picked and hurried us to pay:
Maybe she knows about the economy? She definitely surprised used with her choice. $7.99 beats $24.99 any day.
