Shopper-in-training

Since Penny's meltdown at Mollie Stones a couple of weeks ago, I have been avoiding taking her shopping, but today I had no choice. I decided to let her use the kid's size shopping cart since it was a relatively uncrowded time at the store. It was slow, but it worked and Penny had so much fun that she didn't want to put the cart back afterwards. This method of shopping requires a precise shopping list that is in order so you never have to go back to the other side of the store for anything.

Penny's 1st time at the zoo

We had fun at the SF Zoo today. Penny got a live view of some of the animals that she has only seen in books. She insisted that the polar bear was a doggie, but she did recognize some of the other animals. Her favorite thing at the zoo was the train ride. She was sleepy from the time that we got there and by the time we got back to the car, she fell asleep in her stroller!
