Purses & Pretend

I got my 1154 LILL bag!! And it's even more fabulous than I thought it was going to be:


The inside:
And the best part - it's reversible!

I love the contrast of the bright colors on the outside with the black and white on the inside. AND I love the green against the black and white. YAY!

Mia also got a new bag - Grandma gave it to her. It was an old computer bag that she wasn't using.
We had to run errands this morning, so Mia loaded up her bag with all the essentials - Disney Princess phone, a couple stuffed animals, a couple of cars. We were at the Credit Union and she of course had to lug this bag (which is almost as big as she is) in, too. We finished up what we needed to do and were walking out. We were in the middle of the credit union and Mia stops and announces "Oh! My cell phone is ringing!" Everyone stopped and stared at her as she opened up the zippered pocket (same place I keep mine) and pulled out her Princess cell phone. She looks at it and goes "oh, it's Data calling from the restaurant." [little note here: Data is one of two imaginary friends she has that reside primarily in Grandpa's workshop. I swear she hasn't been watching Goonies - I have NO CLUE where she came up with this]. She answers the phone and proceeds to have a full-on conversation. "Hi Data. We're just dropping me off at Alex's then mommy's going to look for a new house for us." *pause while Data talks* "No, no it's not a problem at all. Sure, we can do that. We can just meet you at the restaurant this afternoon, then we can go to the library. You going to the Farmer's Market tonight?" She just carried on and on. One of the bank tellers said "does she really have a cell phone?" It was quite amusing.
