don't let colin help you decide what to wear

got done with work and was excited to do a 'girly' thing--a real treat for me...shopping for something new to wear!

i had received a ten dollar certificate for kohl's in the mail and i thought i would use it to help find something fun to wear for easter.  found a few promising things, but thought i'd try them on.  narrowed it down to two, so i put them both in the cart and figured that by the time i made it to the front of the store, i'd have my mind made up.

colin was chatting it up in the cart/stroller thing.  he was singing me songs (okay, everyone within earshot got serenaded) and was in a pretty good mood.  he was standing up in the cart, turned to talk to me.  i told him to sit down, turned around to look at something and i heard:  'Mommy...look...i threw up.'  nice.  luckily, it was all in the cart and landed on just one of the shirts.  so...we headed back to the bathroom (miles away...), took that lovely shirt and washed it in the sink.  colin was feeling much better :) and asked if he could play too.

the gal at the register was a little confused when i presented her with a wet blouse, but went along with it all.  i used my coupon, walked out the door and decided that i'm not going to let colin decide what i'm going to wear ever again.
