Shopping Partner

It is very rare that I only take one child with me to run errands. This Saturday, I was able to take Brooke, and only Brooke, to the mall to get a little shopping done. Gary and I are headed to Mexico soon and I was hoping to find a few new things. Little did I know I had brought along someone with quite an opinion!

It seems that the new 'style' of shorts fits you comfortably around the waist, but clings to your legs like a pair of biker shorts. I did find a few pairs that appeared to have a more traditionally fit while on the hanger. I decided to give them a try in the fitting room....with my mini-fashionista Brooke.

While I was trying on my clothes, Brooke was immersed in her snack of cereal (that Old Navy was giving away that day at checkout...totally random). I really didn't think she was even paying any attention to me...until I got those shorts on.

Brooke: "Hey mom...does that hurt?"

Me: "Does what hurt Brooke"

Brooke: "Those shorts."

Me: "Why would they hurt?"

Brooke: "Because...they look really tight."

Me: (holding in the laughter..or was it tears?): "Where do they look tight?" 

        Brooke: "um...on your legs and on your booty!" 

Needless to say, the shorts were returned to the shelf.

We met my mom at the mall the next day. I think that she may have been a little nervous about what Brooke would think of her outfit selections! Brooke did decide, though, that she would like to try on everything that mom tries on-why not??!!

Gorgeous right??
