Thanks, Aurora!!!

My dear friend, Aurora, gave the kids some gift cards for Target – as thanks for being stellar photography models. Completely unnecessary and uncalled for. This is one of those gifts that ONLY benefits the kids. Thankfully, I had a camera to keep me entertained as the kids combed each toy aisle, and spent some time in the accessories section (for Isabel), then went BACK to the toys.
Ryan seemed pretty attached to that skateboard ramp set. Then, he kind of wanted The Penguin Sub. Then, he decided on a Shake ‘N Go car + Zing Shot. And hours later, when the Zing Shot proved difficult to learn (though he eventually got it), I rocked him in my arms for 10 minutes, as he cried/whimpered that he made a mistake and wanted the submarine, after all.
The poor kid was overwhelmed with choices – he looked at everything and, pretty much, wanted everything. He’s back to loving his picks – I have to be careful not to get hit with a Zing ball!
Isabel, on the other hand, looked around… a lot, but knew exactly when she found what she wanted – 3 inflatable pool floats (that she knows she will have to share).
Thank you so much, Aurora!! Really!! My kids felt so special and have been begging me to take them to Target for the past two weeks. Love you!
