The Slobbery Drool Gang

Reed doesn't know that Monday isn't usually a day welcomed with beautiful smiles! He was very happy this morning. He was NOT very happy last night!



Reed and Mommy went to grocery shop today and they did very well. Not as well as the Money Saving Mom, but they did better than I usually do at the grocery store.



After I got home from work, we loaded up the ole' Town & Country and headed towards Target. It's been quite a while since we've darkened the doors of Target, so it was a much needed respite from the normal grind of Wally World.



At Target, we met an ultra cute little China Doll who has been with her Mommy and Daddy for three years. She and Reed loved chasing each other.



Then, we headed to Chick-fil-a and guess who came in. Yes, Reed's new little friend. She insisted that they sit at the table right next to us.



Reed didn't mind one bit!



After dinner, it was Reed's first time in the play zone. Reed had fun, but check out the drool on his shirt. There must be some mammoth teeth waiting to come out.



Here's a picture of Reed and his new friend. Do you think they are excited?



Reed loved playing in the play place, but he started getting sleepy.



Check out the drool!!



We bought Reed a new ball at Target, so he got to play with it when he got home.



He was careful to remember his old ball as well!



A little perspective on the size of his new ball.



Playing outside with his ball was just what Reed needed to get him perfectly sleepy in time for his bath!
