baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

I took Hadley to Big Lots on Saturday to pick up some inexpensive Halloween decorations for the house. En route to the seasonal department we passed two large display tables covered with baby dolls. You know, the ugly dolls who's eyes open and close and say "mama" when you squeeze them? Hadley loves these dolls. Has one already. But she saw these and all hell broke loose.

"Baby! Baby! Baby! Baby!..." Doing the sign for baby simultaneously. So I let her hold one and went shopping. Pretty soon I was able to distract her with some bangles and snuck the baby onto a nearby shelf. But we had to go by the babies again and it all started again.

"Baby! Baby! Baby! Baby! Baby! Baby! Baby!" My mom was with us and gave in and bought her a baby. We had to remove it from the box immediately in the store otherwise we were going to have a huge meltdown, which is unusual for her. Pretty good buy considering the baby has yet to leave her side.
