Over scheduled and insane!!

I hate Saturdays with a passion. Dave always works on Saturdays...EVERY SINGLE ONE!!!

I try to keep busy and boy did I today!!!

Apparently I have blonde hair, and really? What can I say? "My hair made me do it?"

I made plans with my mom to meet at Babies r Us to get a shower gift. Um, yeah, real smart with THREE kids in tow. They love toys, books, clothes....EVERYTHING!!! Oh, and Kieran said, "Hey mom. They sell beds. I need a bed. My bed is getting old." Good try. No go.

If you have ever shopped a Babies r Us registry you KNOW it is not all warm fuzzy feelings with brisk efficiency. Did I ever mention I love shopping?? BUUUUT, I love shopping when I know where it is, I get it, AND LEAVE. Oh no, not with this store. First they confuse you with Umpteen numbers. "You will find this in section 42." Oh great. Oh lovely....and where may I FIND section 42??? And finally, after reading a MILLION bar codes. I found it!! I hit the jackpot!!! It's on the registry AND cute!!! "Thank God!" I loudly proclaim. I know, I am pathetic. I truly WAS begging God to just help me match those numbers so I could get the heck out of there. Another shopper looked up with a grin on her face and Starbucks in her hand. "They don't make it easy, do they?" Really, all I wanted to do at that moment is rip that Starbucks out of her hands and RUN!!!

We finally get to leave......oh wait, the girl ahead of us got a THOUSAND(you can only say million so many times) jars of baby food....ALL shoved in a bag. She needed to return something else, then buy the food and a few other things... really?? WHO buys food at Babies r Us??? Not even at a good sale price. Well, besides, obviously, her. (No offense meant if you do BTW.)

Next was WalMart to get tissue paper, bows, and a card. Then the Dollar Store since we needed a cute bag, Wawa for a sub, the zoo(whole other story), lunch on the run, and a 12 mile trip that took AN HOUR!!!! Baby Shower for 30 minutes, then off again so my mom could get my sister from work and I could get Dave from work(only 5 minutes late I might add.)

You know what makes me even crazier???? I made cornbread(from scratch) and apple crisp tonight when I got home. Dave can wash the dishes(Actually, he is awesome - he already is.)
