shoping with my boys

First of all, let me just say...  I hate grocery shopping!  It is one of my least favorite chores.  And this is definately the first time I have ever taken a picture while doing my dreaded task.  But today I happened to have my camera in my purse and I was watching Dallon push the cart as he always does with his two little brothers and it just touched my heart.  Dallon is my BIG helper! I am so thankful for all he does to help me and make my life a little sweeter!  When we go shopping he loves to push the cart.  He runs down isles to grab little things I've forgotten. He helps load things onto the conveyor belt.  And when we get home he helps haul in the groceries until the job is done.  I know... I'm so lucky to have him!

What cute pictures and a very cute idea to take a picture like that. Your boys look absolutely adorable! I know dallon must be a big help to you. I've got Tyler and I don't know what I'd do with out him either.

I hate the grocery shopping too. what a necessary evil. It's nice you have your little helpers though. I remember being the same way with my Mom when I was younger. shopping is so much more fun when your spending someone elses money! :)

I concur, I HATE grocery shopping! My oldest has now joined me in that hate so it is hard to get him to go. But now that I have two in school, I usually go then. I'm an in and out kind of shopper - get it done as fast as you can!

Jaimie when I first heard the story of Raef cutting the little girl's hair I did laugh. I had to try so hard to not let Raef see me laughing. I know if it would have been my little girl I wouldn't have thought it was funny. But I didn't know what to do but laugh. I'm glad you think it's funny too.
