I went to Wal*mart this evening after putting the kids to bed. Seriously I have SO struggled with shopping with the kids lately. Last friday I went with just CO as J was on a visit and the first store went well, the second was a disaster (I was that mother walking out of the store leaving her cart behind with a screaming child in tow) and the third went ok, the fourth was borderline to being a deja view of the second store.
The boys do great at the grocery store. We can do walm*art...but not this close to Christmas as easily. i think it is over stimulating for CO with all the Christmas stuff and overall I just don't take them to stores enough I guess...because I hate shopping. But this evening...it was a dream...the store was peaceful, no children, not too many people. I got everything I was wanting and am officially ready for the holiday!!
So, bring on the snow!!! that is what I want...a white Christmas. I have all my shopping done (I picked up the last of the stocking stuffers this evening). The only thing I didn't get was diapers for J. It seems Walm*art was out of size 4 :) how crazy is that?!?!?
CO and I finished his presents this evening. All that he has left to do is wrapping. I got 90% if my wrapping done and I have the 6 stockings mostly packed (no we don't put out empty stockings the night before). So I am ready for Christmas!!
BRING IT ON!
