Batman Was Spotted At St. Louis Mills

This is a picture of what Matt looks like on most days.


Yesterday we decided to go to The Mills to pick up a few things that the boys needed. Matt asked if he could wear his Batman mask into the mall. We didn't see any reason to break his heart, so we told him he could wear it. Everywhere that we went people would make comments about Batman. The other children in the play area kept trying to get him to chase them. Later we ate at Steak 'N Shake and Matt took his mask off to eat. After he ate Justin took the boys to the bathroom, then I grabbed Sam and met him outside. We were almost home and I asked Justin if he had grabbed the mask off of the table. Justin gasped and I knew that we had left it in St. Louis. My heart started racing because I didn't want him to realize that it was left behind, he is pretty attached to it. I told Justin to stop by Walmart and I would run in to see if they had anymore. I found a few in the costume section and I bought two so that we would have a backup. I climbed into the van and the boys kept asking me what I bought. I put the mask on to turn around and surprise them. When I turned around Matt had his mask on too. The mask that we thought was missing. Oh well, go sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here.

Hi there! Nope, Chase has been a great little boy and I still only feel little flutters. I'm sure the kicks will be starting anytime, so I might be changing my answer in a bit! haha!! Thanks so much for telling us about the get-together. I heard about the comedy group that is coming to the First Baptist Church the night of the 26th from WIBI. We might be going to that with my parents. So...we will see which one we can do - we would love to hang around with everyone!
