Can you guess what it is?! It’s shopping for summer clothes of course! I just spent almost the entire day trudging driving from one store to another, dragging my poor kid along for the very hot drive. First, let me just what happened to SPRING? We went from snow storms to 80 degrees in 2 weeks!!
Anyway, have you seen the crap they call clothes in the stores right now? I’m sorry but I didn’t look good in maternity clothes when I was pregnant! Why the heck would I want to wear them now? Stupid empire waists. They don’t even look good on the mannequins! Hello, anyone listening??
Really, it’s no wonder I’m stuck in a rut of t-shirts and jeans, and apparently I won’t be changing that anytime soon…blech.

Okay, I really am a terrible mother. I knew his sneakers were getting a little tight. He never complained though.
Today we happened to be at the oh-so-addictive Target, presumably to pick up a prescription. I’m not dumb, you fill your script there and it gives you that extra opportunity to wander those glorious aisles. Shhh. Don’t tell my dh. Oh, I’m rambling? Thinking about Target distracts me. Where was I? So, we’re halfway through the store and I thought, hey let’s see if they have any sneakers on sale. You know he only likes the character shoes, and they have to light up and that = expensive!
Anyway, we got down to trying them on. His old pair were 11 and a half - nearing the top of the little kids range. So we try a 12, nope, too tight, 13? nope. People! I had to buy a 13 and a half!!! He jumped two full sizes since I last bought him sneakers. It’s a wonder he could walk at all.
Oh, and they’re Hot Wheels! (but no actual wheels) and yes, they light up. In case you were wondering.
