what the...?: no. 2

apparently black friday came early this year, as in yesterday. wow. it was crazy, crazy c-r-a-z-y yesterday at the mall! old navy too, but they were having 50% off their outerwear, so that was to be expected, but i kid you not, it was like the day after thanksgiving! everywhere! some guy running the register i went through at target (found cole some dress shoes, finally) said he had no clue what the deal was, but it was SO busy. very observant young man, eh? anyway, mom and sarah came with cole and i (we stayed overnight friday night since kelvin was staying in the cabin and hunting the next day)... we all got some great bargains at old navy! i found 3 skirts, two tanktops and three t-shirts, all for about $28 total. awesome! i also found a long jean skirt at motherhood at the mall, got a long-sleeved shirt (thanks mom) and made a stop at bath and body works for some lavender-vanilla lotion. i also got the massage oil, since they didn't have any bodyspray... i wanted to get some anyway for the delivery room. oh, it's SO nice to smell good again! it's been awhile since i had that lotion and it's my absolute FAVORITE scent. cole was an absolute angel pretty much the entire time... he played in the dressing room at old navy and got a bit antsy, but once we ate and headed to the mall, he was more than happy to sack out in the stroller. he almost fell asleep, but was just a little too distracted by all the people to actually doze off. he was close though! i have no idea what it was that made him so good, but it carried over to this morning. cole sat SO well during meeting, even though i was there (haha)! maybe it was because bonita and jennifer were there? who knows- he was so good! he did giggle a bit during the emblems... ooops. he thought it was pretty funny that he could stick his crayon in the hole on his notebook and it would stay there by itself... i'm so proud of him! now, if we can just get him to KEEP sitting that well, that would be awesome. oh, and for anyone who's not in this area of wisconsin, we're having some nice little flurries today. brrrr. it's 32 degrees and i have to say, i kind of miss the arizona weather right now...
