Amusing Antics at Famous Footwear

So we had to get Jackson some new shoes and went in to Famous Footwear yesterday. We found some we liked and put them on him, then told him to run down that middle space in the store "really fast" so we could make sure they stayed on well and that they didn't trip him or seem awkward on him. He ran back and forth doing his "laps" and showing off. There was no one else in the store except us and two salesladies. They were watching him and sort of laughing as he ran, then one of them was like, "Wow, he's really fast!" That's all it took for Jackson to go into complete show off mode. While Jake was paying for the shoes, Jackson ran towards one of the store's padded kidney shaped benches, flung himself sort of half-onto it, half-around it, bounced off of that, grins at the salesladies and laughs, then runs full speed ahead to the entrance rug, does a perfectly straight somersault on the rug, and tries to head out the door. It was so funny. Jake, the ladies, and I were all laughing so hard. Jackson was laughing, kind of a fake laugh, and seemed so proud of his grand finale. Yep, that's our little adorable show-off! I'm sure the half hour we were in that store was the most entertaining those ladies had ever had!
