Clothes

Yesterday Chad declared that we were going to buy me some new clothes. This declaration came about because I'm always bitching about not having anything to wear, and I think he's getting tired of hearing me bitch about something so petty. So we packed everything up and drove for an hour to the nearest acceptable mall - "acceptable" meaning that there is an Old Navy there.

Somehow though, we came home from the shopping trip with only a bra and a pair of lounge pants for me. But for Ella? She got two pairs of pants, a pair of overalls, two shirts, a hoodie, a dress, a pair of shoes, and a Dora the Explorer basketball hoop. (Perhaps that Dora the Explorer basketball hoop was actually for Chad, but it was officially purchased for Ella.)

Always, this happens: we intend to buy things that we need for ourselves, but instead come home with stuff for Ella. Why can we never spend an on ourselves anymore?
