The Stealth Shopper

Melody went out yesterday to pick up a few things at Target. A few food items, a shower rack, just some odds and ends. Of course, Ella was with her and was riding in the shopping cart. When Melody got home she found this in one of the small organizing bins she bought...

It seems as though Ella decided to help herself to some new bath toys but didn't want to tell Mom. (she has seemed a little bored with her current bath toys). We figure she simply swiped the toy from one of the aisles while still in the cart. Fortunately (or unfortunately), she didn't get the "five finger discount" and we did notice on the receipt that the toy was paid for. I guess she did a good job of hiding it from Melody but not from the eagle eyed checkout person.

i am glad to see she is becoming quite the little shopper. Her aunts have taught her well. Remember the DSW shopping trip in 4/08?
