Eleanor discovered the Disney store today. We went to a mall to return some shoes and ride the carousel. The shoes were from The Children's Place, which just happened to be right next to the Disney Store. Eleanor stopped in the entry way and exclaimed, "Look! The floor sparkles!" She then noticed the six screens of various sizes playing an old Disney movie (maybe Sleeping Beauty?). She was enthralled. I watched, not wanting to seem like I disapproved of the store, but really, really not wanting to go in there. Eventually, she was ready to move on. I told her what was going on in the movie (much easier to explain than How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which was playing in another store) and she was fine with not going into the store. For now. Who knows how long we can stave off the Disney beast. I don't mind if they come to visit every once in a while, I just don't want them coming in and taking over.
On another note, we also went to the pet store and played with a $1,600 golden retriever. Now I have to go to work.

We don't have the Disney store, but we do have a similar place called Kids Club near us. I had a parent moment when Cedar said one day when she was upset, "I don't like my toys! I want to go to Kids Club!"
i'd be more afraid of the puppy. Â geez louise.
