New sandals and trains

Last saturday we decided to take a family trip to the KOP mall. It was memorial day, so I was banking on everyone being down the shore and it being really well air conditioned. I turned out right on both accounts. Grandma J and Aunt B came with us to the stride rite- love that store!
The guy at the store wanted to put big guy in these dorky brown sandals. I casually said we should try them on and then picked out these awesome black/neon green waterproof sandals. Bad-butt! (which is the hubs and my new word for bad-a**) trying to cut down on the cursing.

Big guy wasn't too impressed with the brown ones- he sat on the floor. But the green ones were a different story- he ran right out of the store with joy. Not only do they look good, but they are lighter and slimmer- big guy is walking/running so much better. He hardly falls now. And because they have slits, he can wear them without socks and in water. The perfect shoe!

After purchasing, we went to the Ruby's diner- 50's food- burgers, shakes, but healthy stuff too. Best part- cool motorized trains that run on tracks above our heads. big guy was in heaven watching them go by. Every time they went by, he said, "WHOA!" So precious. And bonus, they have a great kids menu- not just hamburgers, pasta, and chicken fingers. BIg guy got a grilled chicken breast cut into strips with fruit salad.
