Breaking the bank

The girls emptied their piggy banks a couple of weeks ago so I took them to Toys 'R Us yesterday. My girls are so uniquely different. It was so fun to see what things they chose to buy and how they chose them.

Mckenna literally wanted the first thing she saw which was an orange swimming noodle. The next few things she picked were also chosen very early in the shopping trip. She chose a stuffed jaguar(which looks exactly like one we already have, but is about 4 inches bigger), a spiderman umbrella(when we brought it home we realized it was broken so we'll be exchanging that), and a key chain with Troy from the movie, "High School Musical"( a movie which my girls have never seen but are so in love with).

Once Mckenna had chosen her items she would not change her mind. I kept finding other things that I thought she would like better and she would want them until I said she had to put one of the other things back. Then she'd think about it for a few seconds and say, "I will get that next time," and we'd move on.

Emma was totally different. She knew before we walked in the store that she wanted something with Hannah Montana or Gabriella from "High School Musical." We didn't reach that section until we were almost through the whole store. Emma enjoyed walking through the store and looking at all of the toys, but wasn't really interested in any of them until we reached the right section. Once she found her cosmetic set, she was ready to go and didn't want to stay in the store any longer, as she was anxious to open her box. It was such a fun trip!
