I took the 4 youngest to McDonald's today, but ended up wishing I hadn't. Syd scratched some girl, and wouldn't apologize in a way that seemed like she was repentant. We left. I think in the future, I'll do my scrapbooking here and forget about trying to do it at McDonald's. It'll probably be better to do it that way anyway. I told Jerry I'd take the oney I saved on eating there and spend it on scrapbooking supplies instead, and he said it would be a better use of the money. I think if it were more of a special treat instead of something we always just do, it wouldn't be so taken for granted. Maybe I can do with Sammi what I used to do with Shabree, and take her by herself for awhile. That was pretty good bonding time for Shabree and I. Pretty much all Syd did while we were there was watch the tv they have. WHY bother? They can stare at the tv at home, and I don't have to spend 8 dollars on chicken nuggets. Especially if I have a place to scrapbook at home.

I think I'm going to go to bed. I went to a bunch of stores today, though I didn't actually do that much shopping. I need to get myself a little spending money. The scrapbooking supplies I want are seriously expensive. I love brads and I love ribbon. I have found really expensive paper I love as well. I want to buy more. So yea, I need some spending money. Of course, it would be nice if I could just... use what I have. And I will try to do that. But, I was thinking I didn't want Alex to get Sammi's "seconds" I want her to have stuff I bought JUST for her book. And there is some awfully cute baby girl stuff out there. I went to Joann's today, and I am just in love with the Debbie Mumm baby lines. They're adorable, and I want it all. On sale, of course. LOL. I'm exhausted. I cleaned the table off, I'll scrapbook tomorrow.
