New Shoes

Ethan is really rough on shoes. The pair he wears to school looked beat up after the first day he wore them. I know he needs new shoes but I just haven't gotten around to picking a pair up.

This weekend Ethan hung out with grandpa and grandpa noticed his shoes and told him he would buy him a new pair. Well they ran out of time so grandpa sent the money home so we could pick him up a new pair. We didn't have time yesterday so I told him when he gets home from school we will run up to the mall.

Of course the first thing out of his mouth is "when are we getting my new shoes mommy?". We headed to the mall and he picked out a pair of black low top converse shoes. He was so excited he wore them out. He usually takes his shoes off the moment we walk in the house but he didn't with these. He kept them on for a couple hours and then I noticed he took them off and placed them so neatly next to the table. He really likes his new shoes. Thank you Grandpa!


Another funny story.....

I needed my dad to watch Ethan on Saturday night for a couple of hours. Well my dad said he would pick Ethan up Saturday morning and keep him til Sunday afternoon. Thats cool with me.

The night before he went to grandpa's I told him he needed to go to bed no later than 9 pm when he was with grandpa. He cut his eyes towards me and said..."when I'm with grandpa I can do anything I want to". I tried not to laugh but I really couldn't argue with him because I know its so true.

I called dad later Saturday morning and asked if Ethan ate breakfast and he said yes. I then asked what did he eat...donuts? and he said no he had chips. Only with grandpa can you eat chips for breadfast.
