The Comedic Player

Over the weekend, we went to the mall. This was our first time out as a family of 5. We still haven't purchased a double stroller, so we had Jaydon push the umbrella stroller with Jacoby in it while I pushed the bigger stroller with Jilian in it.
We approach Dillard's, and enter through the cosmetics section where they have a long red carpet stretched out down the middle aisle. Jaydon walks down the aisle really strutting his stuff (like he knew what the red carpet meant?!) while pushing the stroller, just smiling at all of the middle-aged women who try to spray you with their nasty perfumes. At one point, he lets go of the stroller, and cocks his head towards 2 women. He winks at them and says, "HELLO LADIES." There is a roar of laughter and all of the women flock to him. Mind you, my son is wearing a red striped Polo shirt with his perfectly fixed hair, and looks like the next George Clooney. I thought they were going to start asking for his autograph or something. Then my husband chimes in, "He takes after me." ...of which the women heard nothing because they were fixated on Jaydon. I think he ended all of their mid-life crisis. He really made their day!
Wait...did I tell you that my son is SIX years old?!? I've got a long road ahead, huh?

Then as we are leaving the mall, Jeremy goes to get the car and leaves me with the three kiddos. This very ghetto looking man with a long face storms by. Jaydon says, "Mommy, I think he's sad because his pants don't fit."
I couldn't stop laughing the entire way home.
Not only do I have a player, he's also a comedian! :)

So below is a picture of Jilian in a borrowed red bow. I wanted to use this bow for pictures of the three kiddos in their matching red & white Polo outfits, but we didn't get that far in the photo shoot on Saturday because of Jilian's lack of cooperation.
Anyway, I PROMISE that I don't put bows like this on her ever. In fact, I laugh at the Southlake mall-walkers whose children wear bows this large. I just torture her for pictures.
I can't wait to share her pictures from the shoot on Saturday. I know you will be as pleased as I was!

Stay tuned for a hilarious video post in the next few days...

Have a great week!

A bit EXTREME, huh? (Click to enlarge)
