The Failed Hunt for Feet Pajamas

Charlie loves to sleep in feet pajamas, but he has outgrown the ones that we have at home. So, after nap on Friday I decided we should go to the mall - to the one store that I know has feet pajamas up through our size. I loaded Emerson and Charlie in the car and headed to the mall. Of course, taking a toddler to the mall alone is no small feat, but add an infant to the mix and it was a wild ride. I decided that it would be easier to have Emerson strapped to me, because then I would have free hands. So, I put her in the Baby Bjorn and Charlie walked and we made it to Children's Place, only to find that they had NO feet pajamas in a size bigger than 24 months! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! Don't these people know the effort I had made to come to THEIR store!? So, of course we couldn't just turn around and leave. So, here is what we did do!


Charlie has to check out all of the riding toys outside of Children's Place.

Poor Emerson - the plight of the second child!
I know it well!


Riding the carousel!

We ended our adventure with a cookie and rest while we watched the ice skaters.

I hope someday Charlie and Emerson appreciate YOU! I was impressed you tried the mall alone, but watching the video of the carousel was too much. WERE YOU ALONE???
