I've been trying to get out of the house with Henry in the early morning hours. If he's going to be up so damn early, we might as well get shit done. Yesterday we went grocery shopping. Today we went to a sidewalk sale at a kickass shoe store. The sale started at 6 a.m. and we were there by 7:15 a.m. and it. was. crowded. Henry loved every minute of it. There is a second floor balcony so we went and stood and watched everyone moving around and he just jumped and squealed with excitement. We also stood and watched the tropical fish tank for quite a long time. I could see his reflection in the glass and he looked really drunk. So funny. He was clearly the star of the sale, better than any 75% off of anything deal.

Here's a hint, if you go to a crazy busy sale with a baby strapped to your chest in a Baby Bjorn, you will get all the help you need from multiple sales associates. This store is known for above and beyond customer service but I kind of expected it to be difficult to get help when there are one million customers and not one million employees. Nope, instead I was almost getting annoyed with the offers to help every 5 seconds. I have a feeling they didn't really want to help, they just wanted the opportunity to say hi to the most adorable baby in the world.

And now here's a photo of something completely unrelated to sidewalk sales. Henry got to play in the sand for what I think is the first time (I have no idea what he does when he is with his dad so for all I know this was not a new experience at all)!
