Mall Outing

My sister is staying with my mom until they can find a house in Wyoming.  While she is here were are taking total advantage of being able to hang out and let our kids play together.  She needed to get some new clothes so we thought it would be fun to go to the mall!  we didn't really have room for a double and single stroller so we only brought two single strollers for her two kids and Carson.  we figured her oldest boy Dreysen could walk since that's what he does most of the time anyway.  we started out the day meeting my mom for lunch.  She works at the Church Office Building so we took a stroll across beautiful temple square and stopped for a picture in front of a big fountain.

after lunch we headed to Gateway mall.  I don't know what we were thinking.  all three of our kids usually have  nap right after lunch, we figured they would be fine for an hour or so.  ended up shopping for 3 hours, and had quite the time chasing around the two toddlers while Ashlee's 13 month old kept crying in the stroller.   We probably had a total of 8 potty breaks and 4 meltdowns while we were out but mingled in there was alot of giggling and chasing from Carson and Dreysen.  We did end up finding some great deals at Old Navy and Wet Seal.  So it was worth it! next time we will just make sure the kids get a nap and we have enough stroller seats to strap them all in :)

Why didn't someone come up with this sooner?

Yesterday my family celebrated my birthday, and I got a new outfit from Lilac Clothing .  All of their clothes work for maternity or regular clothing.  so you can wear it your entire pregnancy and then after you have the baby it will still fit! I didn't believe it at first so I tried on the shirt and pants, (remember I am 8 months pregnant and not at all small right now)   it fit perfectly and is super comfy. so then I had my younger sister try on the exact same shirt and pants and it fit her perfectly too!  she is basically the same size as me pre-pregnancy. (she is actually a little skinnier then I was)  I am very excited about this new concept of only having to buy one wardrobe.  and they are super stretchy so even if I don't lose all the baby weight I know they will still fit!  anyone who is still having kids needs to check out their website.  they are a little expensive but soooo worth it :) 

I got this shirt

and this pair of pants,  notice how one model is pregnant and one isn't and they look great on both of them :)
