Shopping <ugh>

The boys are so not happy with me today LOL...Dragged them into town shopping with me...Hey if i have to suffer then so do they <ggg> We took the car and it wasn't a good start...Went to go and park in a small side street where it's disabled parking only and we were stuck behind 2 lorries with another lorry beside us...There was 2 taxis behind us so couldn't back up out of the street...Stuck for what felt like hours but was still about 15 mins...If the lorry beside us had backed up by just 2 feet then the one in front could have got past the one that was unloading DUH!!! Was no parking spaces left once we got to the small street anyways so went parked in big shopping centre instead...Next bad move have something to eat before we shop <sigh> By this time M was so wound up he was a nightmare...At least they went into Game when i went into Primark next door...Was looking for a new baby boy pressie but couldn't resist a hooded, furry pink gilet for my best mates wee one...Also got her one of those white embroidered tops that are back in fashion again...Can be part of her christmas...Manegd to get a set of 3 sleepsuits with noahs ark animals on them and a 3 part set (jeans, top and gilet) for friends baby boy...Do hope they ain't reading this LOL...Still want to get a soft denim baby jacket but the ones i have seen are all too *stiff*...Bumped into someone i used to know who has a daughter same age as K...She was pushing a pram with a 2 month old baby girl and it's hers...No way would i be wanting more kids at my age LOL but she's happy...Downstairs we went into Burtons and i tried to get the boys to try on new trainers...Ones for just using everyday not sporty type...G got a pair even though he kicked up a huge fuss about trying them on <sigh>  Usually i buy them, take them home, they try them on and if they're no use i take them back...M was in such a state i gave up trying to get him some...Burtons is good for getting velcro ones and 2 pairs for £55 instead of £35 each, so i always try to buy them both at same time from there...I did get to look in a couple of jewellery shops at stuff for K...Saw some gorgeous Hot Diamonds stuff but need her ring size...Didn't get a webcam as i couldn't find one on sale in argos so need to ask my friend which model it was...I gave in to the boys and they got a game each for the PS2...We did find a pressie for my mum who is 74 today...There are permanent stalls in entrance to one of the shopping centres and one of them sells glass and crystal stuff...So we bought 2 items which am trying to take pics of in a mo

Happy belated birthday to your mum :-)  Shame M didn't enjoy the shopping trip but at least you managed to get a few things.  The denim jacket sounds cute, bet it would be great if you get one with some tiny little trainers ;-)  Bless.......
