ready for rain

every notice how easy it is to spend a lot more money than you intended? this is especially true for me when i go to the mall. take today, for example... i was just going to old navy to get olivia a pair of rain boots. she was pretty excited because we had discussed it over breakfast. (she also asked that i buy garrett a pair of boots too...specifically blue with red airplanes. olivia is all about the details.)

so i walk out of old navy with a large bag...what did i buy, you ask? well after talking olivia out of the pink camo boots, we got her to agree to the cute white with green polka dot ones. then what's a cute pair of boots without the coat? and as long as we're buying that, we should just get the umbrella, too. and we can't leave poor garrett out so he better get his own set of rain gear. so that explains my large bag.

when they were showing off their new gear to their grandpa tonight he asked "what no matching hat?" who needs a hat when you've got the umbrella and raincoat with a hood? see i am a smart shopper! ok, i admit i kind of wish i'd gotten the hats too. they were cute.

well, even though i spent way too much on rain stuff (considering the snow we got today) it was worth it. the kids love it. garrett even wore the whole outfit to bed. yes, he even has the boots on too. and check out the umbrella handle by his pillow.
