Today we headed into Dubuque. On the way there my Mom made a stop off at the bank and at the post office. When we got to Dubuque, Rob made a run into Target and picked up a monkey back pack baby leash so that Gabriel wouldn't have to be in the stoller the entire time we were in the mall.

Yes, you read that right... mall.

Normally I absolutely hate being in the mall around the holidays, or anytime it's super crowded for that matter. However, today it wasn't all that crowded. Go figure. So, the shopping wasn't so bad.

We stopped in Younkers so that we could pick some gifts up for my Nana. Gabriel was sleeping, so Rob waited by some tables while my Mom and I did the shopping. We found a nightgown and some slippers (which will be from Rob and I) and a brown sweatshirt with some birds on it (which will be from my Mom).

While we were at the mall, we decided to try having Gabriel see Santa once again. There was no success this time either. He spent the entire time screaming and freaking out and trying to get the hell off of Santa. *sigh* So, there won't be any Gabriel and Santa pics this year. *snifflewah*

After the mall we grabbed some dinner at Long John Silvers. Gabriel was super fussy and they didn't have any high chairs, so we just ended up eating in the car. Then we headed back to my Mom's place.

What Are Your True Colors?

You are GREEN. Greens are terse and prefer to keep to themselves instead of going out to cause trouble. They're pretty secretive and don't open up to a lot of people, and usually keep thoughts in their heads unlike stating them out loud. Greens are excellent at keeping secrets, though not big on talking or performing. Their strength lies inward, as shy thinkers who would rather contemplate before rushing out. Greens look before they leap unless something extreme makes them do otherwise. The other side of Greens is their high intelligence and quest for knowledge - they love to learn and find out new things whenever they can. This makes Greens very versatile when they are coaxed out of their shells, which is a tough task. Yet while Greens may be smart, they are also good at balancing their activities and often end up with success in their lives. Sometimes they can be lazy and would rather sit around than get out in the world and do something, though not slackers by definition because they have active minds. Greens might also be sarcastic or unkind, even selfish, but these times are rare as they do not like expressing their feelings towards others without a good cause. Greens have trouble understanding others and often feel a bit left out, though more often than not they don't care. They don't get in anyone's way, and that's fine by them.
