We had a great morning. Zeb left, Sara Beth stayed in her room until her alarm went off, and Leigh slept pretty well. We played outside in the cool, windy weather. No tears at all...until...
I was to pick my grandmother up at 11:10 and we were ready at 10:30, so I decided to take the girls to Target. I needed a couple of things. I grabbed a shopping cart and put Leigh in the front in her carseat and Sara Beth in the back. Since it was raining a little from Gustav I was hurrying along until I hit something-hard-and all I saw were Sara Beth's tiny feet flying up and then they were gone. I panicked, as you can imagine and ran around to the front and realized that I had run into one of those giant red balls in front of Target. Sara Beth flipped out of the buggy and went into a handstand on top of it and then sprawled out on top of it. People were running over to help. I immediately picked the screaming SB up, quickly looked her over, no blood or cuts, and held her. We both cried for about 5 minutes standing in the rain in front of Target. Thank God she is perfectly fine. I figured it was like riding a horse, if you fall off, get back on. So we went ahead and did our shopping and she rode the whole time in the back of the cart-completely happy and healty! I have always wondered what those giant red balls were there for. Now I really am curious!

Girl i know how you feel! John David flipped out of the buggy going into target on the raised place where the door opens and closes. If it makes you feel better, both of my children have fallen out of a buggy. I praise God that my boys are fine.
