One of my favorite things to do is thrifting. I love finding a one of a kind piece for an awesome price! Since having Callie, I've found myself at thrift stores & second hand kid's stores more often due to the awesome deals and adorable kids clothes.
This week Callie and I ventured out to one of my favorite spots and Callie did a little shopping of her own! <3
We were not in the store 5 minutes before Callie started pointing to the purse section and saying "mi mi, mi mi", which I think means me or mine. I pushed our cart over to the purse section where she pointed and picked out a handful of purses. I of course let her pull all the ones she liked off the rack and put them in our shopping cart to play with and enjoy while we were in the store.... not with the intention of buying any of them!
Callie on the other hand had a different plan in mind. After we completed our shopping, we headed to the register to check out. This is when I realized that Callie had all 5 purses she had picked out draped over her arm. (the ladies in the store loved it) I attempted to put a few of them back, when the tears came :( my heart broke!
I had a total 'you only live once kinda moment' and gave in and let her buy the hot pick Victoria Secret purse that she had her fingers glued to. Victoria Secret for a 1 1/2 year old, I know!!! but this momma could not resist her cuteness! (Who knows, I might even get some use out of it, it is rather cute! )
We left the store purse in tow, one happy Callie, and a memory I will cherish forever.
3 days later, I'm not regretting my purchase one bit! She plays with her purse more than any of her other toys!
