Raegan is at the age where she wants to walk everywhere. More accurately is she wants to run everywhere. At the department store, she cares not to ride in the buggy buts want to walk. Since that is not a good idea since she likes to run away, I have to put her in the buggy and give her something to entertain herself. Right now she loves balls more than anything. At the store all I could find were some golf balls but that did the trick. She played with those for a while. At least long enough for me to get some shopping done.

We have started bringing in our own toys to the store. It bothers my husband since he doesn’t want anyone to think we are shoplifting. But I’m guessing toddlers bringing their own toys into a store is common. It’s cheaper to let her play with her own toys than having to buy something every time we step into a store.

I’ll have to start keeping golf balls in my purse since that is a ball and is small enough to fit in it. It’ll keep her entertained and I can get some shopping done.
