Cars Fruit Snacks

It started out as a rainy Saturday morning.  Carter was the first to wake up.  Aubrey was actually the last to get up where she normally is the first.  The boys ate their french toast and then went to play with the train set. 

After a while we decided to head out to some stores.  Calvin was saying that he wanted to see fishies so we went to PetSmart.  Of course it was raining harder and harder as we got to the store.  I pulled up as close to the front door as I could so we could unload the kids without getting too wet.  We let the boys out of the stroller and they ran wild in PetSmart.   Calvin said, "Fish are going crazy".  They seemed to really enjoy running around.  It was a little bit of a challenge keeping up with them.  As you might expect they went in different directions several times.  After PetSmart we went next door to Belk.  The boys were still out of the stroller running around.  Eventually Erin got them back in the stroller.  Then she took them to Tropical Smoothie to get a small smoothie and a little pizza for lunch.  They didn't eat the pizza, but they sure loved the strawberry-banana smoothie.

By the time we got home it was time for lunch and then nap.  Carter didn't nap for very long.  I had gone down to the basement to play the PS3 when Erin brought him down for me to watch.  So I stopped playing the game and played with Carter instead.  Then I actually did a little cleaning up while we were down there.  The boys woke up a while later and then Aubrey got up too.  The rest of the day was spent playing around the house.

Sunday morning we went on our usual Wal-Mart trip.  I'm not sure how, but we spent over $500 on this trip.  I guess formula and diapers really add up.  Only two more months of formula.  Then we can switch the babies over to whole milk.  We picked up some Cars fruit snacks and the boys wanted them while we were in the store.  By the time we go to the checkout line there were only two pouches of fruit snacks remaining.  The box comes with ten so they each ate four.  Each one was shaped like one of the Cars characters and they would tell us who it was before they ate each one.

I found it interesting that he had some folks stop us and ask about the kids.  The one lady said that she has twin girls and always get stopped.  She said, "Isn't annoying when people stop and talk to you when you're in a hurry?"  Then of course she proceeded to continue to talk to us for another five minutes or so.  I guess she didn't get her own message.

We got home and gave the boys another Kid Cuisine, but they didn't seem too interested.  Probably because of all the fruit snacks they had at Wal-Mart.  They all went down for a nap and again Carter didn't nap long.  This time Erin kept him while I went around marking all the areas that need to be fixed when the house builder comes by this week to do our warranty repairs.

Aubrey started to get hives from the Zithromax after her third dose.  We gave her some benadryl which helped counter the allergic reaction.  We now know that Brayden, Calvin and Aubrey are all allergic to Zithromax.  I'm sure Carter is too, but we haven't given it to him yet.
