Mall...FAIL (sort of)

Today is the last chance I had to find a decent shirt to wear to my 10 year class reunion. It is casual dress attire, but like I said before (I think), NOTHING fits right since I'm in between my regular clothes and maternity clothes. After trying on shirts at Macy's and JCPenney, I found a shirt that I hope works. It seems to hide what I want to hide, but not make me look like a beached whale. Well, pictures from the reunion may show otherwise, but I am done looking!  I already tried on tons of shirts from Kohls, Macy's, and JCPenney. I was excited when I got to the mall because Maurices is now in the mall, so I attempted to look there, but the store is set-up quite poorly for anyone with a double stroller or in a wheelchair, for that matter!  What a letdown!

Now I know why I don't take the girls out much!  I should have known it was going to be a rough trip since Natalie woke up on the wrong side of the bed. However, I took the chance and loaded up the girls. Overall, Aubrey was good, she had a couple outbursts, but she slept most of the time except for when her big sis messed with her (the downfall of a side by side stroller). I also didn't strap Natalie into her seat since she hates being confined, but she lost that privilege quickly since all she wanted to do was stand up. Natalie is very much a free spirit...can't wait for those teenage years!!  Natalie whined and cried the ENTIRE time, my phone didn't even entertain her like it can sometimes, but she did manage to change around all my apps on my phone...now if I can only figure out what she deleted. I just ignored her for the most part since nothing else was working. There were lots of older ladies in the store since it is during a weekday and they would come up and talk about how cute the girls are, etc. All I could think was "Yes, they are cute, but can't you see how awful my toddler is being?"  They didn't seem to mind, but I did...I know Natalie is not a perfect angel, but really, where did my good baby go?  At least she is still sweet and gives kisses and hugs!

Here's a video of her lovely crying...this is what I got to listen to much of the morning!


On a positive note, Bobby surprised me and got me a new computer!  I am now the proud owner of my own MacBook Pro 15". I may not have acted excited (because I know how much they cost), but I really am!  My old Mac is 5 years old and is still a good computer, just didn't have the capacity I needed anymore. What I am really excited about with the new computer is the much better screen and I now have Photoshop on it, so I can mess around with that to try and edit pictures!  I got a case and keyboard cover for it to prevent any scratches to the outside and to protect the keyboard as well. I decided to go with blue because it reminded me of the ocean and our beach vacations. It was either purple or blue...I'm glad I went with the blue...it's a happy aqua color!
