Getting ready for Christmas

Christmas is my favorite holiday. Trying to do the normal things this year like decorating and Christmas shopping has proved pretty challenging with a baby. I've discovered she does not yet enjoy shopping much (hopefully I can change that). She completely lost it when shopping in Nordstrom Rack and another time at Kohls. I don't mean she was fussing a little. I mean she went from quiet to crying loudly with everything she had. It is especially helpful when passers by say things like 'oh, she is not happy'. Thank you, strangers, I was unaware until this point that the crying and screaming meant unhappy. She also cries at the grocery store. The lady at the check out line has twice suggested to me that she is hungry. Thank you bagger lady, but no my baby is not hungry. She just ate. She just hates your store. Now to look at these pictures you'd never know she is ever unhappy.
