Brenna's Good Shopping Day

Honestly, is there anything going on in my life other than Brenna? Hmmm, let me think... Nope, not much. Which is the whole point of staying at home, huh?

I was feeling a bit house-bound this morning and called my sister to see what she and Ethan were planning to do while Carter was at preschool. She needed to run to the mall to pick up some jewelry she took in for it's annual check. So Brenna & I tagged along.

First Jen wanted to take Ethan in to Old Navy to look at Halloween costumes. Let's see... Pumpkin, nope. Race car driver, nope. Purple dragon, nope. Jen nixed the fairy costume. LOL.

So we went across the hall to The Children's place. More pumpkins, nope. Pretty yellow flower? Nope. Pink butterfly? Not a chance. Ethan wasn't giving up any hints. Jen had decided on black skeleton PJs with glow-in-the-dark bones when Ethan blurted out "I want to be Superman." So, there it is. Back went the PJs.

Meanwhile, I was spinning through the sale racks. Brenna scored a fancy denim skirt and matching hat with a coordinating shirt, a poncho (which I hate on women, but soooo cute on babies!) and a pair of PJs. All on sale. I have 2 coupons for 15% off at Children's Place good October 7-30 if anyone wants them. Let me know.







Afterwards we let the kids play in the play area; until some parents left their kids there unsupervised. Honestly, what were these parents thinking? There is a large sign that says you are not to leave your children. What if they were hurt? Or taken? Neither of those things happened while we were there. No, those kids were just rude; pushing smaller kids out of the way, blocking the slide so noone could use it, being rude to the parents who tried to get them to behave. It's no wonder some children have no manners; their parents obviously don't either. Grrr...

And that was the highlight of my day. How was yours?
