DANGEROUS LOCATION! Warning to those in my reading community!

I just went in to get a baby present.
They have great baby gift ideas, by the way.
Unfortunately, they have lots of great non-baby gift ideas, too.
Some of them planned an unexpected trip home with me today.

I've just about finished Michael's ceiling...last coat of paint should go on today. He already has a "dino" quilt, but the sheets he has been using are the ones we got when we first got married. Not fun, kiddie ones, but they work, you know? They cutsie ones can be hard to find in full-bed size.

And then I saw these dino sheets. They will go great with his quilt. They will go great with his wall colors. They will go right into my shopping cart... And Matthew really did not need this. When he moved to his big boy room right before Michael was born, I bought a cheapie comforter (just plaid) for him from KMart. Well, you get what you pay for. It's coming apart. But still usable.

But, sucker that I am, this quilt and shams were hard to resist for my Car Boy.

So, I didn't.

Ugh.

  2. I feel the same way about Target. I try to make a list and stick to it, otherwise I'm in big trouble.

    Those items are precious. You are such a generous mom. : )
