School Shopping with Max

I absolutely love back to school shopping. Once a school nerd, always a school nerd! I also absolutely love one-on-one time with these big kids that my "two under two" suddenly grew into. One-on-one back to school shopping trips it is then!

Max got to go on the first shopping trip yesterday, and we had the best time! Our sweet conversations and his insistent hand-holding were good for this mama's soul.

He chose to eat lunch at Firehouse Subs because he wanted a new fire hat and a cherry limeade.

We got his school supplies and backpack at Target, and he helped me pick out some new sunglasses. He was actually really helpful in telling me which pairs looked better than others.

We ended our trip with a stop at Freezing Moo for "rolled ice cream." This is his ice cream all flattened out after they mixed it up:

Then they scrape the thin ice cream into rolls and top it with goodies. Max chose gummy bears, M&M's, and sprinkles for his toppings.
