Day 129: Shopping Spree

I slept fairly well last night.  Of course, it wasn't long, but it was enough to feel rested.  I went to Zumba and did the same ol' routines.  I know she's busy, but I really wish Sabrina would change things up.  I suppose I'm exaggerating... she did change things up; she had a new warm-up and cool down.  However, I would like to see different routines and would like fewer routines with such a Jazzercise-y feel.

Mo was here when I got home.  She has been wanting to see the baby for a while, so my mom invited her over.  It was nice that Eisley was occupied while I showered.  However, it was too soon before I had her back and was feeding her.

I had about 20 minutes before my mom said we needed to get a move on and get started with our errands.  I had to dig through all my boxes and bags to find clothes that were more weather appropriate.  I found all my jeans and grabbed three pair that are size 6.  I also grabbed a couple t-shirts and found all my sweaters.  Good news is that I can squeeze into my old clothes (just the size 6 ones... I'm not even daring to touch the 4s), however "squeeze" is the main word.  Although I was physically in them, they did not look great.  Not only do I need them to look great, but I need them to be a bit loose, so I'll know I can fit in my 4s.  Anyway, we went to Starbucks first, since I was starving.  I had a soy frapp and we split a breakfast sandwich.  Then we went to Buy Buy Baby.

I changed Eisley once we got inside and my mom returned the umbrella stroller.  We had to look for pants, since it's getting cooler and Eisley needs something to cover her leggies.  We found a couple things at Buy Buy Baby, including new jammies, a winter hat, and the Kickin' Coaster (which will replace the stroller).

Next, we headed to Babies R Us because BBB didn't have enough of a clothing selection.  We had to change Eisley when we got to BRU and then we searched for pants.  They had a slightly larger selection, but it was fairly expensive.  I ended up spending $85 -- yikes!  We got seven pair of pants and two onesies.

We threw all the stuff into the trunk and walked to PetsMart to return some breath/teeth stuff I'd bought for Puck.  Luckily, that was a quick trip.  However, we did slow down to check out the puppies up for adoption outside the entrance.  I always feel so bad for them, but at least they're not out in 100º+ heat now.  They didn't have a good enough set-up to be having those dogs in the heat all summer... Regardless, I was not allowed to adopt one... at any point.

I ran my mom by SAMs to return a couple things and buy diapers, since I wasn't sure if she'd be in town when I ran out from this last purchase -- better safe than sorry.  I stayed in the car with Eis and changed yet another diaper and gave her a bit of her bottle.  She was incredibly fussy, since she was so tired by this point.  Once mom finished, we went to Target so I could see if they had any other boots and to pick up a couple items that mom had forgotten to buy at SAMs.

They didn't have any other boots that were the next size up -- just NB booties -- but I did peruse their clothing selection and decided that Target is where we need to shop.  Not only do they have totally cute stuff, but it's priced much more reasonably.  I grabbed some leg warmers and a pair of leggings on my way to the household cleaners.  Once I got back to the car, I showed my mom some clothes and prices (I took pics with my phone) and she said she'd take back anything we bought today from BBB or BRU that I didn't want/need.

Tonight, Eisley did a fashion show from Grandma and Grandpa.  She is totally adorable and could definitely be a baby model.  I can't wait to dress her up and take pics for her daddy to see.
