Went shopping yesterday with two of my sisters and though the craziness of the kids made me a bit overwhelmed at times, we had fun. Darn it though, I didn't get my moo late, when will DQ be back up and running around here? I'm in withdrawal. Oh and to a couple of you.. I don't even want to know the points in that cup. ;)
Shopping - I found some fantastic cami's that work great for nursing. I'm a bit of a cami-aholic you could say, I wear one everyday! Unfortunately though I only bought two and a pair of earrings.. oh and a pin-wheel for the kids. I wanted to go crazy shopping, buy it all.. but nothing was jumping out at me to take home. I hate when that happens. Nothing for the kids or Kurt either - that is a bad shopping trip in my eyes. On another note, I love Anne Taylor Loft - I just wish it wasn't quite that expensive though.
So lets talk Tenny-Shoes (how do you spell that anyway, I always wonder?) I cannot tell you the last time I bought tenny-shoes - I dislike them very much so.. however there comes a time when you need them and since I have no idea the last time I bought myself a pair (besides the fact that I have a pair up in my closet that I just can't wear in public).. I just can't bring myself to do it. Yesterday I looked - I was determined to get a pair at Dick's Sporting Goods since I had a gift card. Though they have many to choose from I could only tolerate three and they didn't come in my size - seriously? The hunt is still on. How do you people do it that wear them all the time?
Took my wedding/engagement ring in to get repaired. I haven't been wearing it for over a week because the diamond is loose. This happened one other time right after we got engaged because I kept wearing it with my gloves at work. I suppose I will probably have to deal with this until I decide to add more than four prongs since it sits up so high. I feel naked without it though and a bit awkward, not sure how woman go without wearing their rings at all.
Little did I know that a double stroller and four children made you look like a daycare, but we actually got asked if we were a daycare. LOL! Someone thought Liam and Brennan were twins and Chili's is now The Little Mothers Club!

Dressed up - sweats & a tie!
Did everyone have a fun Valentine's Day? This was the first Valentine's Day I think my children actually understood. Kurt and I didn't get a chance to get the kids anything until the night before, of course with them all in tow. Landen saw his gift so Kurt had to make up a story that the "bowling set" was for Liam. Landen half believing him and half not would not let it go. I quickly hid it when we got home (even though he saw it when we got home too). I had to make up a story about a Valentine's Fairy.. which sounded pretty good until my family pointed out I should have just gave it to him. The things you do to make a holiday something special. Ahh. He was pretty excited at 7:00 the next morning when he came running into our room - it's Valentine's Day! :)
Yesterday I finally got to go and see Rebecca at Eagle Eye Institute. Long drive, but it was nice to see where she's living and some of the girls she lives with. I'm hoping that we get to have dinner with her and some of the brothers Saturday. We went to Flat Top the restaurant. It was really yummy and if you haven't been, it's definitely worth trying out. We went to a few different stores, I had some gifts I wanted to get for people and of course any opportunity to go shopping I'm all about. I decided I hate the outdoors mall - that was a stupid idea in my opinion. I got a few really great deals at Old Navy for Kurt and the kids! I got boxers and fashion tights for Kurt and Amelia for $2 and a shirt for Landen for $3. Then Target I found some regular solid colored t-shirts for wearing under things and things for $1 for myself. I was excited about that! Then I got my sisters some great socks and Amelia a few things for a $1. All Valentine's was 50% off the clearance - making for a great deal. A lot of the stuff was definitely not just valentine either. I was excited! I got the kids two good books for church - one was All about the Mass and the other about the Sacramentals. I think these will be great for church and to just learn about the different things in church.
I realized I'm a total whimp when it comes to winter. I have yet to actually drive on snowy roads this year (I prefer to just stay inside) and when I couldn't see the road on the way home, I was freaking out. I really hate winter. It made for a yucky hour long drive home, but it was worth it. ;)
Lent starts Wednesday. I can't decide what to do/give up. I was thinking facebook but I don't think I want to do that. I'm spending less and less time on their anyway, I'd like something that's going to help me afterward and I always give up sweets or something. Any idea's?
Have I mentioned Kurt and I finally started the Love Dare book! It's amazing, I'm loving it.
Here's Landen - he gets himself dressed every single day. Today he gets his sweats and a shirt with a tie. I thought it would be off after an hour or so but it's 3:21 and he's still wearing it. Too cute! :)
