Addison has officially become a cog in the big consumer machine. Now to preface, she's been pretty good - a little too good - at recognizing all of her Treehouse buddies when we're at the store, even the ones she doesn't watch on tv - Elmo, Bert, Ernie, Barney, Mecca Pecca, Dora, Diego, Thomas...and the list goes on. However she's never been one to ask for a toy when we're in the store (so far) or throw a tantrum if we put a toy back on the shelf (so far). But today, it became official - the consumer machine has a firm grasp on this child.
We were at home and I asked Addison what she wanted for lunch. Usually we have sandwiches, fruit, pickles, yogurt...normal stuff. Sometimes she'll ask for cheese, sometimes for peaches. But today? "Addie, what do you want for lunch?"
" 'DONALDS!! 'DONALDS!!"
Oh yes, the Force of the Golden Arch is strong in this one. And I'm trying to figure out how she knows McD's...cuz we have been there only 2-3 times in her whole life!!!

My children are definately little consumers already. I don't know how often I hear them ask for a new Webkinz or to go out for dinner....
It'll only get wors--*ahem* I mean, better from here ;)
