That Darn Plankton

So, we took the kids to Burger King tonight.  They have Spongebob toys right now.  So, all my kids got a version of Spongebob.  Well, Blake was upset because he wanted Squidward.  How do you explain to a 2 year old that just because the toys are displayed in a box- that does not mean that Burger King has all of them!  So, Hayden makes a little friend there and trades her Spongebob for a Plankton.  This upsets Chase so much!  (Normally he would not have cared but, for some reason - come to find out he really wanted the Plankton.)  Whatever- You get what you get and you don't throw a fit.  So, the whole time he is pouting about Hayden always getting what she wants, and how lucky she always is and how he never gets anything.........  Anyway, then we head over to Home Depot and he is still trying to negotiate a trade of some kind with her.  I'll push you in the cart if you give me the Plankton, I will trade you ten of my favorite toys for the Plankton.....it went on and on.  I would keep looking over at him and he was whispering in her ear.    Finally, it was time to go (after being there forever) and Hayden can't find the Plankton-- it is lost.  We look for it and can't find it.  WELL... hallelujah!-- The darn thing is LOST!  After that the kids were great!  NO more fighting over that dumb Plankton!  He caused just as much trouble for me tonight as he does for Spongebob!  That Darn Plankton!!!!!!
