Farmer's Market

 Lindsey and I took both the boys to the Farmer's Market on Saturday....

 I caught myself thinking...multiple times... HOW IN THE WORLD did I manage 3 kids by myself?  I took the 3 of them everywhere...shopping in a neighboring town, on airplanes, on just day trips around town... 

 Emerson and Benjamin would each decide to go a different way at times... YIKES!  Here, we bought a basket of organic strawberries and they sat down and ate the entire basket. 

 Emerson wasn't too sure of the whole situation... he walked around checking it all out...

 

Benjamin is used to going to a Farmer's Market.  He wanted to 'help' by holding 'Mama's bag'....

 At one point, we were sitting on the lawn, listening to music, and letting the boys run around a little.  Emerson spotted this ball.  I had told him earlier he had to leave it alone because it belonged to someone else...but then those people left and the ball was still there!  He was squatting down like this photo....just staring at the ball.  Before I knew it, he had it in his hand and was standing at my side saying, "Hi Mimi"... as if he wasn't holding the blue ball I had told  him earlier he couldn't play with!  Another lady and her kids were close by and I asked her if the ball belonged to them, yes, it did, but she said he could play with it for awhile...

We played catch for awhile...until the older boy of that family decided he wanted it back...

 Benjamin, in the meantime, was hanging out with his mama eating an apple! 

 This was so cute!  We started walking around, Emerson grabbed Benjamin's shoulders, and started leading him..or following him around... he did it for quite a while... so cute!

 

After we left the plaza, we walked over to Los Bagels.  Yum!  

 The boys enjoyed the stools that turned...

Here we are on our way home...

A busy day for my little farmer's market boys!
