Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

DD stole beer again.

There is one of the ZOMG FOOTBALL! type displays right inbetween the 15 items or less checkstand and the coffee bar - the two places I am most likely to not be focusing 100% on DD because I'm engage in some sort of transaction. 

DD is learning about letters so she reall likes any sign or product that has big letters she knows on it.  As we're walking home I'm hearing DD say, "R! R!" a lot from the stroller so I peak down there and sure enough she's holding a 24 oz can of Rainier beer. 

So I tell her that we don't take things that don't belong to us and we turn around to give the beer back to the store and apologize.  I make DD do the handing back to the clerk and say "sorry." 

Then the clerk gives me this "b!tch please" look and goes, "You should teach that babygirl that Jesus saves." 

Ummmmm... Yeah.  Thanks but I think I'll stick with "don't steal stuff" for now and work in redemption and the theological implications of violating commandments later.

And while we're busy giving each other unsoliticed advice why are loose 24 oz cans of Rainier in the grabbable area of the stroller population?

  • What a beeotch!!!  How on earth could you a) not laugh your arse off at a 1 y.o. stealing beer and b) not melt when the little tyke says "I'm sorry." What message does that send???  Baby's probably thinking "shoot, I should've just kept the beer," now!

    where in the HELL do you shop that you run into these people?  you should have had the kid launch a pack of chicken at her ass.

  • I might have said "Who's Jesus?"
  • Larks, I'm surprised Maggie hasn't been banned from the local grocery stores yet! LOL

    OMG!  That would have been the perfect comeback!  "Who's Jesus?  Is he a financial advisor?  Or is it a store like WalMart or something?"

    LOL!  Thankfully there are three big ones and two little ones in a 10 block radius so we're able to spread the havoc.  And the grocery store down the street has so many crazies that a toddler lifting a beer every so often probably results in the staff at large saying, "Well, at least the mom was wearing pants and didn't try to start a fight with anyone." Stick out tongue

    I am seriously rolling right now LOL. And the fact that it was Rainier makes the story even better!
