Best Shopping Partner Ever

By MadelinePetersen |

Tate loves to shop. Our grocery store excursions are a great way to simultaneously entertain Tate while I am busy and to completely wear him out so he is ready for a nap as soon as we get home.

But I can’t very well put Tate in the moby if I am shopping for clothes. The 20 pound baby strapped to my front tends to obscure my ability to try anything on in the changing room. I had some Christmas gift money and have dragged both my husband and Tate around to just about every store you could think of while I attempted to spend every last penny.

We went to the outdoor shopping center here in Utah, so we bundled Tate up in his stroller and started to shop. He fell asleep just about as soon as we got going and stayed asleep for three hours while we navigated the cold outdoors as well as stores and changing rooms. It was such a relief not to have to contend with a hungry/fussy/tired baby.

How does your little one handle shopping?

    I like to take my son to home depot and show him the paint samples. He loves the colors!
