Seriously!!

So tonight I made a wonderful dinner and then decided that Gavin and I would go to Walmart for some groceries (keep in mind I have been homebound now for 3 weeks) so this was a big deal!! I made a list and we were ready to go! Gavin was in charge of holding the bag of baby clothes that we needed to return. I got to the store and got him out and got ALL the way in Wally and remembered that we left the returns in the car...so out we go to get them. We got to the car and I started looking in my purse to find the keys...they were there however my wallet NOT THERE! So home we go! Now we have the wallet and the returns and are in Walmart again. I headed to get Kurt deodarent and some Halloween candy then straight to the baby clothes. I picked up a pair of cute pink $4 pants for Jenna and then turned the isle to the lotion. When I got there I went to mark some things off of my list to my suprise the list is GONE! Completely gone, not in the cart, not on the floor, not in my purse just GONE!! I of course blame Gavin cause the last I could remember he was drawing on it. So I start to retrace my steps cause I need this list- I went all the way to the front of the store and had no luck. So I just started going isle by isle trying to think of things we need. When I finally got to the last isle I decided those $4 pants just weren't needed so I headed back to put them back. When I got there I started to look at other colors of pants and lo and behold there on top of the white pants is my LIST!! I almost peed my pants! I was the one that lost it not Gavin, so dont worry he came home with a treat! I then had to go through the whole store to get the correct items on my list!!!

I swear this not going out of my house thing is not good for me! The baby is completely fine- however I am going to end up in bad shape!!

Just thought you would all like to see what having another child has done to me!!

I've always thought I had a great memory until Sydney came along and when I forget something now it is something for Nelson and that does not make him happy. Yes our costumes were very strategic.

HI TARA: I know just how you fill, only add about 50 years on top of that and that's where I am. I am forever loosing my list, if I was really smart I would pin it to my shirt, I think I can remember doing that with your Mom, when I sent her to the store as a little girl. Not a bad idea.

Hope all is well, I really miss all of you, especially little Gavin. Hope to see you soon. Love Grandma

I am impressed you would search for the list. What faith. I would just figure that Loralee ATE it!!!! The Lord cared enough to make sure you got all the you needed so that you wouldn't be frustrated that you didn't get everything you needed. You are awesome!!!
