Mathew and I came to the realization yesterday that we spend a large part of our weekends and days off working in the yard, cleaning the house, doing laundry, and all kinds of other things that are more work than fun. Therefore, since it was a gorgeous day and we had the day off work today, we decided to have some fun and enjoy the nice weather by going shopping for the day at Legend's.
After sitting in her car seat and chatting away the entire drive there, Maddie loved walking around outside and checking out everything going on around her. She was a happy little girl for the first hour of shopping, but she started to get fussy in Carter's. We were in there for quite a while after running into some friends, checking out all the adorable outfits that were all 50% off and trying to decide how many we really needed to get her, running into some other friends and their adorable little boy, finally making our way to the clearance bins, and not wanting to miss any good deals, Mathew proceeded to look through all of them. By this time, Maddie decided she had her fill of being inside the hot, crowded store, so her and I went to the car to change her. Of course, this left Mathew unsupervised in a store full of adorable clothes for our little girl, which could be troublesome as he has a hard time controlling how many outfits he buys for our little cutie :)
After our trip to the car, she crashed out for the rest of the afternoon...
After a full day of shopping and a short stop in Tonganoxie to see Grandma Emma, we headed home.
As I was getting our purchases out of their bags, I couldn't help but notice a slight disproportion. Here's Maddie with daddy's new clothes...
Here's Maddie with mommy's new clothes...
And her's the (slightly spoiled) little girl with her new clothes...
Oh how things change when you have a little one. Mathew used to give me a hard time for buying her clothes, but he is just as bad if not worse than I am now. As he says, how can you pass up on so many adorable outfits that are all under $10? From about the day I met him, I always knew that it was going to be bad news if we had a little girl, and he has definitely not disappointed me in how much he loves to spoil her :) These outfits say it all...
Pink outfits with dancing monkeys that say "daddy's girl". He can never resist.
Of course, we didn't forget the aunties, especially since it was lime green and teal (and on clearance at TJ Maxx)...
All that time outside this afternoon checking everything out must have worn out Madeline. After giving her a bath and getting her in her pj's, I went to feed the puppies a little after 8 PM (2 hours before she usually goes to bed) and came back to the bedroom to find this...
