Whole Foods


Lee and I picked up dinner at Whole Foods on Saturday evening. We let the boys ride together in the cart. They both had a blast driving the truck around the store. Near the end, we noticed that Caleb was holding a "Chocolate Chewies $4.99 ea." sign. He looked very distraught and was scared that they were going to get in trouble. It was evident that he had just taken it away from Graysen, who was the one who swiped it in the first place. Caleb follows all rules and never touches anything at a store. Graysen does not have the same conscience.
Also, on Saturday, Caleb said his entire alphabet from A to Z and counted to 20. Lee and I are amazed by how much he teaches himself. We do not push him at all. He spends a lot of time at night and in the morning studying books. Our rule is that he has to go in his room at night, but he does not necessarily have to go to bed. He can't play with toys, but he can read and spend time with all of his books. Through this process, he has taught himself many things.

It must be in the blood...Sarah Grace loves to grab anyrthing at stroller level. One day, she had a Vanderbilt trailer hitch. This upset us in more ways then one!
