A little retail therapy

Even with an adorable daughter (showing off her MissMatched leggings), mom’s need a little retail therapy every now and then, right? We’re all entitles to splurge a little sometimes…maybe even shop without our kids? Well, here is my little “splurge” shopping trip. Daddy kept Sydney while I did a little CVS shopping. I think I did pretty good. If you have any good shopping stories, feel free to share!
