The Big Salami!

Today we went to BJ’s to get diapers for the boys. The trip was immediately preceded by dinner and dessert for Papa Bear’s birthday so needless to say Little Man was on sugar overload. We let him run through the large aisles in an attempt to burn it all off before bedtime. In his explorations he came across a large log of salami and picked it up to proudly display it to his Papa. Papa Bear immediately responded to his young son with “wow, what a big salami you have”. Little Man thought that was a great response and took it upon himself to run up to a total stranger and announce “ I have a big salami” while clutching his giant piece of meat. With both parents practically on the floor laughing he was spurred on to chase that stranger down the aisle running after her, meat in hand, yelling “ I have a big salami, I have a big salami”. I know we don’t need to encourage our precocious two year old to be chasing strangers, meat in hand and yelling anything at them….but it was just too priceless to stop. The stranger was very gracious as we apologized to her and rerouted Little Man to instead trying to carry large packs of diapers for us. Anything to burn off that sugar!!!
