Being a teacher that uses candy for motivation, I've made a habit of hitting the stores right after the major holidays to get the good candy at half price. I always say- "this should last us the whole year", but it never does. Well, it should last us a while, anyway!
Emma hasn't had too much candy in her lifetime, so I wasn't even sure if she would know what it was so I left it in plain sight. There were two large grocery bags of candy on the floor, and before I knew it, Emma was toddling towards me with a giant bag of sour starbursts asking "please" and saying "mmmm! MMMmmm!" at the same time. How could I resist her politeness and cuteness?! She got to have some m&m's, and thought they were pretty good. I think we have another chocoholic in the family!
This is Emma's first pair of Nike's and were an answer to prayer. She had been needing a pair of sneaks, and I'd been searching for a good pair since she is a big-time walker now. These were on sale at Kohls for $15- and they only had one pair left on the shelf, and they were Emma's size! She absolutely loves them, and held on to them as we shopped and all the way home in the van, too- I think she is going to be like Aunt Rachelle with her fettish for shoes! Just a small thing, but isn't it comforting to know that God cares and provides for all of our needs?!

What cute shoes! I haven't even thought to check at Kohl's yet. I got AJ a couple pairs at a thrift store, but I'd like to get her something good quality. Sarah's wedding is this coming weekend (10th), so I'm driving down to Indy with Andrianna for a few days. It'll be fun to see her get married. We're not planning to go to Indy for Christmas though - it just isn't working with time off. We may have our first "family" Christmas here with just us 3 - hopefully I'll get to spend time with the family sometime in Dec. or Jan.
