chillin katelyn style

Today Katelyn and I went to the grocery store with my mom.  We went to HEB because they have the best deals.  But HEB overwhelms me.  It is so big and there are so many people and the carts are twice the size of a normal cart and it just stresses me out there.  It is like Walmart on a Saturday any time you go there.  It is that crazy all the time.

Anyway, we got home from shopping and my mom watched Katelyn in the car while I made a few trips to get the groceries up the three flights of stairs to our apartment.  Finally, I got Kate upstairs as well and collapsed on the couch.  The shopping trip had the unfortunate timing of taking place during Katelyn's afternoon nap and although, she was being very sweet and patient, it was obvious that she was so very tired.

So I put her in the saucer and set up my computer so that she could watch Wonder Pets.  She rarely watches TV but we were both just so exhausted that we just needed it.  I could barely put away the refrigerated groceries before I plopped back down on the couch next to her to watch the singing guinea pig, duck, and really annoying turtle save the world, one animal at a time.  That's how tired I was.

(Singing animals are way worse than talking ones.)

So, I am sitting there staring at the computer screen watching the Wonder Pets save the itsy bitsy spider from the rain with an umbrella.  I wonder how an umbrella would help a spider who I presume needs all eight legs to successfully crawl up a spout.  As I am contemplating this, I look up to see Katelyn just chilling with a beverage.


Reclined in her saucer, arms resting comfortably, with her bottle propped on her belly.


And that is how tired we were after grocery shopping.
