We have still been in the house this weekend... due to laziness, snow, and COLD! Although I did run out to Wal-Mart yesterday. Yes, I FINALLY got out of the house. Deric stayed with Amelia so she wasn't out in the cold. I was so happy to be out of the house even for just an hour. But let me tell you Wal-Mart was a mad house. I have never seen it so busy... and the parking lot was a HUGE mess. People were parked all weird because no one plowed the parking lot. I circled the parking lot for about 5 minutes before I found a spot pretty far down and in a good 6 inches of snow... nice.
My plan for shopping was to get in and out as quick as I could.... right *sigh*. It seemed like everyone who saw a friendly face stopped to get caught up... right in the middle of isle! UGH.... now I like to stop and say hi to friends but really stopping in the middle of a narrow isle to have a 1\2 hour chat is not acceptable when there is a MILLION people shopping. I was at there for longer than I wanted and once I got to the checkout I was already missing little A. I even showed the checkout lady a picture of little A! I bought Amelia a few shirts and she asked if they were for my baby. I could have lit up the whole store with the smile and tingle I got when she said Amelia was very cute. :) I was proud I didn't call Deric to see how she was.... of course I thought of it a few times. He is a great daddy... I have totally trust in him. I should have bought him snow boots... he shoveled in his leather loafers!
Needless to say I was glad to get out of the house... I was stir crazy! It was the first time in almost 3 weeks that I drove. It was only the 2nd time beside leaving the hospital that I was out of the house! As I sat behind the wheel I thought to myself.... first drive for me being a mommy.... BE CAREFUL. It will be weird to drive with Amelia is the back for the first time. I am sure I will go like 10 miles per hour! I need one of those signs.."Baby on Board". I don't know if anyone when they see those signs are more cautious but I know I am. I would like to think people are.
And because I can't write a post without posting new pictures of Amelia ... I would be getting a call from my sister.
"Auntie Jen... does my face tell you how I feel about the huge flower you made me on my head??? But my mommy makes me wear it and tells me I am super cute." ~Amelia
