It is not a secret that I am not a fan of shopping, so why would I ever load up my family the day after Thanksgiving for an outing to Lenox Mall, certainly not to shop.
Our goal was to take Noah to the "Pink Pig" (link above) get in and out and not even enter the mall. Mission accomplished! It took a minute to find a parking spot, but nothing like expected. We walked right up to the tent and immediately boarded the "Pink Pig". Noah sat with Grammy while Mommy took pictures and the rest of the family waved from the sidelines. Noah didn't seem to care at all that he was on a ride and surrounded by Christmas Trees. He tends to need sometime to warm-up especially in situations that even for an adult are over-stimulating. This was certainly true today. It wasn't until we got to the car that Noah started saying "Pink pig, pink pig, Pink pig". You get an "I rode the Pink pig" sticker that seemed to be the biggest thrill of the day as Noah wore it, then held it and added stickur (sticker) to his chant for the day.
And except for a quick restroom run we didn't even enter the Mall!
