So, Hannah and I went to Kohl's the other day. I am sure our picture is totally posted everywhere to never let us back in the store again!!
So it all started when I just needed to make a quick trip for some shoes. I knew the exact pair I wanted and had a $10 off coupon! I decided Hannah could just walk in with me (no stroller or cart with stroller inside...BIG MISTAKE!!!). Well we walk over to the shoes and I am totally excited to find that the shoes are also on sale! YAY! So I get the last pair of shoes in my size! YAY again! So now we are off to the kid section to let Hannah pick out a new nightgown...Wrong! Hannah did not want a nightgown she wanted a new pair of shoes (so my daughter is totally obsessed with shoes...the girl has more than I do!). She got so mad...I mean out of control!! Hannah laid down in the middle of the floor and started to scream at the top of her lungs "Stay away from me!! I am not going anywhere with you!!" So you can just imaging the scene this caused. People started walking over to see what was going on and heads popping up from behind the racks! Then the dirty looks started...talk about embarrassed my face turned ten shades of red!! So I get her calmed down a little and we start to walk to the check out. I was holding her hand when she slipped away and ran off as fast as she could in the opposite direction. Then...she hid from me! I could not find her anywhere! A little panic set in and the I found her and she got a big ol swat on the behind! Oh the looks started again I thought for sure that CPS was on the way! We finally get to the check out and she is hanging from me since I now have a death grip on her arm! I was trying to sign my receipt and couldn't get it since Hannah was pulling on me. Then the man in line behind me reached up to hold my receipt for me so I could sign it! Thank you! Thank you! Then he said "Hey don't sweat it! We have all been there! It gets better!" I just had to laugh and said "I hope you are right!" Then we get to the car and I am shaking I am so mad at this point! I called my dad and said "you have to talk me out of beating my child to death!" So he said "Well you can't its against the law, you don't want to go to jail!" Thanks Dad you always make me feel better! Whew...what a day!
