I'm bored, figured I would ramble for awhile

We finally went and bought the boys shoes today. (Emily went shopping with grandma for her birthday and got 2 pairs) We went to the Mall of America, and let me tell you, never again on Labor Day weekend!! It was packed!! We wanted to go to Payless b/c they were having BOGO (buy one get one) half off, and we had a 20% off coupon too. I really wanted to buy them Airwalks since we had good deals, and Emily got the cutest Airwalks too. We got there, and I headed to the kids shoes while Bill stayed with the stroller (that's usually his job) I found some in Nick's size for him to try on, and went to see if I could find the same ones for Jake. Bill was like, 'you're buying the same ones for both?' and I said well yeah, airwalks are not only comfy, but they last a while. So these are their shoes. Those are jake's on the right, they are a little smaller, not by much though, Emily and Nick's are 1 1/2 and Jake's are 13 ;-)

After we got home and they tortured Rosie for awhile, I shooed them all downstairs so she could rest, and when I found her, this is what I saw:


Isn't she the cutest? So now we're all hanging out. I have Abbie and Ellie here (Jenni's youngest girls) while Jenni is out with her dad and sister who are in town. Jenni called me earlier because Abbie wanted to spend the night, so I said Ellie may as well too, that way they wouldn't have to rush home to get her!! The girls played outside for awhile with bikes and sidewalk chalk, and are now getting ready for bed. I can hear them in the bedroom giggling about underwear. Nice ;-)

Those are cute shoes--I should get Noah a pair. He left his outside and they got rained on the other day. Not his new school shoes but his everyday shoes. The school shoes come out Tuesday!:)I was at the mall today too and it was really busy. Too bad I didn't see you guys!
