Running into a fellow blogger at Target and your child is throwing a knock down drag out temper tantrum. Like, laying in the floor screaming and kicking. Screaming to where the entire store could hear him.

That's neat.

Dara unfortunately missed the greatest theatrics when we were in the checkout line and Cason ripped his shirt off in protest off...well I never really figured out what he was protesting, but his shirt came off nonetheless.

But the trip did have a bright side. I got two packages of wipes. One for free and I got paid $1.oo for the other one. Somewhere Coupon Princess is rolling her eyes saying, "Big whoop. I haven't paid for groceries in 16 years!"

That's incredibly awesome. After ripping off his shirt did they come on the intercom and yell GOOOAALLLL!?

WEre you an excellent parent... by just staying completely calm and telling Cason his options, then letting him suffer the consequences?

Also, did he, by any chance, turn green before ripping off his shirt?

Tell me how you got the wipes so cheap...

We had a similar incident at Crest on Monday. It's next to impossible to stuff thirty five pounds of screaming boy into the front of a grocery cart.
You make me feel better about my life. ;)

That is funny! Yes, don't worry I still have to pay for groceries too.. only when I take my 3 tear old and he throws a fit and forces me to buy Teddy Grahame and juice boxes that I do not have coupons for! Note to self.. 3 year olds will ruin my best "freebies" shopping days!

Ok seriously that's like the first time in months I've been to Target without Aidan screaming bloody murder the whole time.
