 Waiting to go shopping with my son, but he just got back from my in-laws and he got a bunch of presents!  He already got birthday presents and now he has more.  Not sure how he's supposed to be excited about special occasions when he gets presents all the time from them and in turn expects me to buy him stuff every day! I was trying to tell him a couple days ago that his birthday and Christmas are just over a month apart and he should wait until Christmas to get new things, and now I just look like the bad guy because his grandmother buys him armloads of presents.  Which is nice and I guess they are supposed to spoil him, but please!
How much do we want to bet that he'll be asking me to buy him something today?

Update: He did indeed ask me, before we even left the house, if he could get something at the mall.  But here's where he won points: He said "I'll use my own money."

So then he kept picking things that cost more than he had! Even with the sales.  And they were all like, awesome Christmas ideas.  He finally picked out an ornament at Hallmark that ended up being too much, so I bought it.  Then we went to Walgreens (Did I mention I have my period and needed pads? It's a miracle I haven't killed anyone yet) and he found those Stompeez or whatever they're called that are slippers whose mouths open as you walk around.  That was too much also, but I let him spend all his money and I covered the rest.  I wish he could have just let it go.  It was like he was buying something for the sake of buying something.  Well, at least now I don't have to buy him slippers for Christmas.

Does anyone know where I can find a boys bathrobe?
