Sam's Club

We had a fun girls day out on Saturday. Mom, Sarah, and I, along with the three little girls, all piled in the Crown Vic for a shopping adventure. Sarah needed to get some items from Sam's, so we all went to stock up on things in bulk. The carts (or buggies as John calls them) were extra wide with seats for two children, so I pushed Erin and Natalie around. Normally Natalie won't sit still and tries to climb out of the cart, but this time she was very well behaved since she was sitting next to Erin. Natalie loves to emulate her elder cousin! As we were walking through the grocery section I stopped and picked up a pack of cans of cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soup. Another family was next to us and the man pointed out the mushroom soup to his wife. Erin suddenly spun around, gave him a very stern look and exclaimed, "I AM NOT A MUSHROOM!" I about died laughing and told Erin I didn't think he was calling her a mushroom, but she reinforced it shouting, "Yes, He DID call me a mushroom!" Needless to say, he was laughing pretty hard by this point too! Luckily we were able to regain our composure and finish the shopping. We did run into the same gentleman once more before we left, but he reassured Erin that he no longer thought of her as a mushroom.

I can't wait until we have some great Natty-isms on a regular basis!
