Shop 'Til You Drop

The old saying that you'll "spend money before it burns a hole in your pocket" was never more evident yesterday than when the girls hit the road for an afternoon of shopping.

So many things to look at, so many toys to try, so many that cost more than the $2 or $3 limit... It all added up to an exciting day, with one exception. Yep, Lauren was in her "Wendy Whiner" mode.

In the picture above, Uncle Jon is moderating the shopping experience (and holding a lollipop that any dentist is sure to recommend). Emily appears to have her hands full of cash, while Julia is taking a ride in style in the stroller. Olivia enjoyed purchasing a new cell phone to go with the pink purse she's holding. Lauren is not picture, though I can guess that she was probably on her hands and knees with her head down, whining about being "too tired" or "not seeing anything" she likes.
