shopping spree

We outgrow clothes at warp speed in this house. Sometimes Reese only wears something once or twice before it's too small. With at least two more months of warm weather upon us, new clothes were a necessity. I've enjoyed dressing him up in fancy clothes this summer, but that's not going to work when he goes back to school full time.

It's IMPOSSIBLE to find school clothes around these parts, so yesterday the three of us headed to Columbus, Georgia. I wasn't sure if it was worth the trip, but my sweet friend Laura (mama to the cutest twins ever) had recently gone and assured me I would find some stuff.

And find some "stuff" we did. I loaded down Reese with enough clothes to make it through the summer months and enough stuff to make it through the fall and winter too. It was OUT OF CONTROL. All the summer clothes at Carter's were on clearance for $5.99 plus an additional 20% off. The fall clothes were on sale, too. Shirts were six dollars and was more than 12. I was in heaven.

I'm shallow enough to admit that I like little man to look cute even when he's at school. Super cute. I also HATE laundry, so it is imperative we can make through at least a week without me washing clothes.

And because no blog is complete without a picture of my baby. Feast your eye's on this little man, who is gnawing on a lego and thrashing his head around growling. Where did he get this personality? Surely not from me. He is going to be quite the toddler if he keeps this up!

Only a few more days of summer left. Feel sorry for me this week, okay?
