Screaming in Costco

Yes, the title says it, that was the craziest point of today.  You and I went to the gym this morning and you enjoyed yourself just fine there--they complimented you on how well you know your colors (you were pointing them out for everyone :)).  We then headed to Costco, a brief trip to get some diapers, cat litter, milk, and Grape Nuts (which you like, by the way).  Not long after we'd gotten in the store, you were displeased that we were not already getting the pizza and 'spite' (Sprite, which is what you call a lot of sodas lol).  You wailed and carried on like I had just done the worst possible thing to you ever (by not letting you down and out of the cart, etc).  I got you calm and distracted for a few minutes while in the diapers aisle by having you tell me what numbers were on the boxes, but that only lasted until we got a couple aisles away.  In the checkout line, a lady felt so bad for you that she offered to take you out and hold you, but I assured her you would be fine and that you were too heavy anyhow.  Sure enough, as soon as we were done with checking out and over to where the pizza was, you started calming down.  And oh did you eat pizza!!  You do like it and usually enjoy, but today you were scarfing it down rapidly--bet you had at least a third of that huge slice!
Back at home, we made chocolate chip cookies together...well, sort of.  You sampled many of the ingredients and the batter after each ingredient addition/mixing, so quality check was in place lol.  You helped me with laundry (by taking out the stuff from the washer and piling it in front of it before I could get down there, then after we brought the dry ones up, piling those on the couch and declaring 'done!').  Put you down for a nap and then it was off to work just after daddy arrived home.
He reported that you woke up a bit on the fussy side (you napped for 3 hours, probably because you got up nearly an hour earlier than usual this morning), but then you lightened up and giggled a lot while watching cartoons :)
You sat by me on the couch to share soup and chips before it was your bedtime, so apart from the Costco thing, it was a pretty good day, I think.
