Costco Fun

 The highlight of our day was our trip to Costco.  The samples today weren't all that fantastic, but that didn't stop us from loading up our cart with all kinds of goodies- most that were on our shopping list, several that were not.  We just can't seem to leave that place without buying a few extra things that we didn't know we needed until we saw it there.

Claire enjoyed our outing and Grace was oblivious to it all as she played with her Leappad.  Then, as always, we ended our Costco outing with a meal in the 'picnic' area.  I love how the picnic tables even have umbrellas even though we are inside a huge warehouse building.  Ambience, I guess.  Claire didn't care one bit whether we were really having a picnic or not.  She was just thrilled that she got her first taste of pizza crust.  She is definitely her daddy's daughter.  The girl loves her pizza!

Trying out the new baby carrier.  Claire is now the weight that Grace was at two years old.  Carrying her in the Bjorn was killing my back and shoulders.  Hoping this new one makes things a little easier since the girl still insists on being carried all the time.
