Below is a picture of my fabulous haul from this week. The tadpole was super good the whole time :) She likes to help. More like she eats my papers, but hey babies are cute. And of course, since I took her with me, just about everyone we saw had to stop and say Hello to her. She is such a happy baby. It makes shopping so much more fun.
