So its been a few days! Yesterday we hit the opening of Marshall's. It was a little crazy, especially w/ all four kids. While I was in there I found a huge picture to go in my Mom''s room. So I was pushing Sophia, herding three kids, and trying to carry the picture all at the same time. I got A LOT of looks. Some were smiley ones, and others where you know they are thinking "why did she come here with all these kids", and then the look that says "are all of those yours?" After Marshalls, Aubrie pleaded w/ me to take her to the Petsmart that just opened (Ben is so not liking all these new stores by us, HA!). I figured Petsmart was pretty harmless, right?! Just gerbals, snakes, birds, etc.... Well, I didnt' know they adopted cats and then sold them. That was all Aubrie could talk about. She offered the idea of getting rid of our beloved cat Simba, who we have had for 11 years. That night he was sleeping on the ground with his paws in the air and Aubrie asked, with a hint of excitement and hope, "Mom is Simba dead?" She really wants one of those kittens!
