Best shopping day with Aydan

Yesterday Aydan and I had a shopping/fun day. He was a trooper. No complaints from him and we took our sweet time running around Carbondale and Marion.
We hit the Book store and he successfully convinced me to get him some Thomas the Train books.
We went to the Saluki t-shirt store and got some new SIUC appareal. He had a blast running up and down the cubes of t-shirts. We were the only ones in there and he took full advantage of it to act like we own the place.
We went to 2 halloween stores to try and find a shark costume or something else I liked for him. He ran into a ghost and it set it off.. which of course made him cry and run to me and not let go until we left. In the end, no costume yet.
We went to the mall, where I had to get a $5 stroller for 30 minutes because I forgot to bring mine. This one had a steering wheel on it though.
We then went to Target for some maternity pants.. all theres are too short. Aydan did get some popcorn to get as I did all this and that made it all worth while for him. And of course, like any other Target trip.. I came out with a lot of stuff, nothing I went in for.
Toys r Us, of course, where we couldn't find a duck, which is what he wanted. Apparently plastic ducks on a string aren't made anymore. And his daycare has 2 of them, that he loves! He got a "Super Why" wand that does letters and words, etc.
Lastly, we went to Walmart for a "smaller" grocery trip. I did find a new diaper bag. I wanted a black one that is bigger than what I have now. With 2 kids.. need a bigger one. This one holds are current one, with room to spare. perfect!
The day ended with going to the Farm in Mcleansboro. He rode down all the slides, even the big one! He got a couple mini-pumpkins.  And basically ran around all the fun play sets, houses, etc they have there to play on. He cried when we had to leave and was asleep by the 5 min drive home.. Asleep in my arms, as I was taking off his clothes to bathe him. And of course, slept really well after this long day.

Aydan in the Saluki shopping store. After running laps for 10 mins, he took a rest.. and posed real cute for me.
