Target
I went to Target today to find some new inexpensive luggage for an upcoming trip to Boston. Naturally I left with luggage and ten other random things. While I was raiding the $1.50 fruit snack sale on behalf of Henry, an elderly woman came up and asked me how exactly would a person go about getting the heck out of that store, and after I directed her towards the checkout lanes, I thought to myself "Why would anyone want to leave?"
A couple of weeks ago I went through Henry's shorts collection and cleaned a lot of things out. Most of his shorts were from the summer before last and were therefore very small. I managed to get a couple of pairs to fill out his wardrobe, plus a couple of shirts, one of which is a Ghostbusters t-shirt. I can't believe it didn't occur to me at the time to see if they had an adult sized version for Dave, since I got it mostly for him..."Back off man, I'm a scientist."
The real miracle is that I didn't walk out of there with any cute dresses or pink onesies or anything, especially since yesterday we found out we're having a girl.

I wonder if Dave realizes yet that you really don't have a lot of Hello Kitty! things...you know, in comparison to later.

That is so awesome! I am very surprised that you didn't pick up any baby girl clothes...on the other hand, grandparents will fill that void, I assure you! :) Congrats!

YEA! Congratulations! It is a miracle - we'll have to work hard to fix the deficit!
