My Little Shopper

Ginny in her car seat ready to go to the store.
Daisy is in the background wishing she could join us.
Today it is Tuesday. Tuesday is the day I go grocery shopping every week.  I don't know why I chose Tuesday as "the grocery day" but it is what it is.  It has been that way for years, too.  When I was teaching, I would go after work every Tuesday. Since I got married and became a housewife, I still go every Tuesday but now in the late morning.  

For the last 8 months, I have had a companion with me when I go shopping, my daughter Ginny.  The first time she went shopping with me I used my Moby wrap. She was bundled close to me and would often fall asleep in that position.  She loved my wrap.  Now she is not a huge fan of the wrap because she wants to see everything.  My daughter loves observing all that is around her.  She doesn't want to miss anything.  

She just got in the cart & can't wait to start.
Our shopping trips are a lot of fun. I actually enjoy grocery shopping. I enjoy it more now that I have Ginny with me.  I'm sure I freak out people as we walk the aisles because I talk to Ginny the whole way through the store. I let her know what we are buying and even tell her how to check fruits and veggies.  

Ginny loves chewing on my purse as we shop.
What I find most amusing are the smiles Ginny gets as we go through the store.  Ginny smiles back at those who smile at her. She is a social baby, our little extrovert.

Ginny is helping me with the list.
