yes, two major things accomplished this weekend.
a) my daughter no longer looks like the incredible hulk in her just-a-wee-bit too small pajamas.

ah, yes. thanks Old Navy.

b) my other children have shoes for school.

ah, yes. thanks Browns.

after talking her out of the heels, which she so desperately wanted, she agreed to get these adidas.
and yes, that is, in fact, how she went out in public yesterday.
i pick my battles, folks. i pick my battles.
