Today was a very long day for the kids. We got up and went to the new Downtown Market in Conroe. It was bitterly cold. Nevertheless, the kids used their charm to "con" a vendor out of frozen custard.
When the sun finally came out, we dropped the top on the car and rode to the Market Center in the Woodlands. The kids love riding in the new car. However, they are so close in the backseat that it is almost impossible to keep them from fighting. My mom and dad will remember the "he's toughing my shadow" fights of my childhood. Well it seems you reap what you sow.
After lunch at Jason's Deli, we stopped off at Lowes'. Brandon and I are remodelling my home office and wanted to check out some glass doors. Landon was fine with this excursion seeing as he wore his Heelys in anticipation of just such an event. Somehow Lylli convinced us that she didn't need to ride in the shopping cart and thus spent most of her time in Lowes sliding on the floor. When I told her she was going to ruin her tights, Brandon informed me that "that is why you should never put tights on a boy." Well, she definitely has a tom boy streak!
Overall, the kids were good. Minus the meltdown Lylli had on the way home. Apparently her shoe was coming off and she was not happy. On the advise of a friend, I broke out my phone and videoed her little tantrum. It seemed to lessen the duration of her fit and may have even embarrassed her a bit. Check out the video and tell me what you think.
