FlashBack friday:; favorites

We started this week off with big tears at our house,   Hailey’s purple panda footed p.j ‘s  no longer  fit her.  You would have thought  she had to say good bye to her bestfriend…She cried and cried and cried some more.  It is sooo true when they say girls are more emotional than boys.  I try not to believe that stereotype but I saw it in full force that day.    I told her we would head to the carter’s store on my days off to see if we could find another pair of purple panda pajamas.   So we headed to Carters outlet to replace a pair of purple panda footed P.J.’s , unfortunately we could not replace the beloved pandas but we did find a pair of purple cupcake footed pajamas, and pair of girls rock silky Jammies.  Haily loves P.J’s.  While I was there I noticed they had there Xmas p’j’s in.  Carters is one of the few stores that I can find matching Xmas P.J’s in all 3 of the kids sizes.    What luck not only did we find purple footed P.J's we found green flannel Santa jammies.  So we both head to the register with smiles all around.  However when the clerk started to ring up the Xmas  jammies, I saw $25 come up.  I laughed , and asked her to double check the price.  No it was right.  They were originally $36.  And on sale for $25.   Really!!  I don’t even have $25 P.J’s.   I guess I will have to wait for a better sale.   What is even crazier is I actually thought about still buying them for  a brief moment.   Why because  you have to have Xmas's jammies and even better if they match your brother and sisters.  I remember growing up and always  putting on our new Xmas's jammies waiting for Santa to come, and feeling so excited and happy in our new Xmas jammies.  It was funny last year I showed the kids the jammies  about a month before Xmas and of course they wanted to wear them right away.  When I said no, they kept asking WHY!!!!  All I could say  was cause grandma never let me wear them before Xmas!!!   I Find it amazing how the little things as new Xmas jammies could mean so much to me growing up and till this day still stick in my mind, I want those simple joys for my own children.  I want them to be as excited as I was  waiting for Santa to come in their cute matching jammies.    I want Hailey to feel as special as I did in my new Christmas jammies.   I love having a daughter, I know I always said it did not matter  if I had a girl or not , but I must admit,  I would have missed buying  sparkly clothes  and  shiny glitter shoes.  I know there will come a day, that Hailey will no longer let me pick out her clothes but until than I am  all glitz.    It’s funny till this day I still remember one of my first sparkle shirts.  I think I would have worn that shirt everyday if my mom would have let me.  It said “spoiled rotton” in shiny rainbow letter.  And boy did I feel like "miss thing" in that shirt.  So I guess you know why little miss Hailey will be in sparkly shirts as long as she let me  pick her shirts and Cody will be in matching Xmas jammies with his little brother and sister as long as he can.  So Flashback Friday's this week is dedicated to my favorite wardrobe pieces as a child!!!  The first one is in my spoiled rotten shirt, boy this picture does not do that shirt any justice!!!!.  Check out my dad, that  shirt and hairstyle does  not do him any justice!!!
