Nightmares and shoes

We have recently been having some issues with the boy having nightmares. So we have removed anything scary from his room. Well, it so happens that he thought his curtains were scary (they were bright colored frogs, I guess it was something about the eyes). So that means I get to redecorate!!! For some the word "decorate" fills them with fear, not so for me, any excuse I can get I will decorate. I took GB to Wal-Mart and let him pick out the fabric of his choice, he choose race cars. Very cool!!! For less than $20 we have awesome curtains. And best of all, no nightmares for the past few days.

While I was out shopping today, I happened upon some clearance sales. One of the things I have discovered about kids is that their feet grow at an alarming rate. So when I see shoes on clearance I try and get what I can.


Let me say that DQ has owned at least 4 pairs of "ruby red slippers". I thought they didn't make them in her size, but alas I found them for $6. Cute and cheap, what more could I want. As for GB I couldn't resist these "race car flag" shoes, they were only $2. He thinks he is the coolest!!
