We are "those people"

I'm fairly sure that Jayda's daily goal is to see if she can embarrass me. Most of the time she accomplishes this goal....sometimes multiple times in one day. She's an over achiever ya know.

While at the grocery store getting some chicken for supper, the lady at the bakery asked if the girls could have a cookie. I said yes and Paisley happily took hers. Then comes Jayda.
She says, "No thanks, I'd like a pushup."
Me: She doesn't have a pushup honey, she has a cookie
Jayda: But I want a pushup
Cookie lady: Here...you want cookie? (she's Chinese)
Jayda: No, Can I have a pushup?
Me: JAYDA...TAKE THE damn cookie
Jayda: But I want a pushup.

Oh my goodness...this madness went on for what seemed like 10 minutes. Finally I told the lady thank you and walked away. At this point I noticed Jayda had snatched a can of pop from somewhere, so I told her to go put it back as I walked towards the check out. Somehow she got confused as to where I was and starts frantically screaming, sobbing, crying and running throughout the store. (keep in mind this is a SMALL store).
So Paisley is trying to crawl out of the cart, I'm trying to unload the groceries and Jayda is doing sprints down each aisle.

Ahhh a day in the life.
