Shopping is scary

I'm a shopholic.
Before I was a mom I shopped clothes for myself like crazy. I go to Banana republic more than once a week. I know the best route to go through all my favorite stores in outlet. I received mails from JCrew more often than receiving my paycheck.
Since we got the house, I found tons of excuses to shop, because we need everything for the house, furnitures, decors, etc.
Now, as a mom, I'm no different than other moms, addicted to Gymboree. Sophia has more than 10 pairs of jeans in size 2T, 5 pairs of tennis shoes in size 6 from baby Gap. I'm 100% sure she doesn't need that many, but I just can't help, they're too cute. As for toys, I used to buy all little people play sets on the market, I even searched garage sales for discontinued sets because I love them just like Sophia. But all a sudden Sophia lost interest in little people, however fell in love with dolls and doll house. Now my mission is to search doll house furnitures and figures.
Crafting is another outlet for me to enjoy shopping, my scrapbooking supplies has been growing from one box to one shelf, then to one walk in closet, but I only had one full size scrapbook finished. My collection of fabric maybe just a fraction of some other crafters but they will definitely last long enough for me.
Everyday, I drive an empty car to work, come back home with a car full of stuff. I don't know why we need all those stuff. I just feel happy when shopping.
Today was a big shopping day for me. I went to 4 B&M stores and made two online orders. Don't get me wrong, I work full time, I didn't take a day off or leave work early. I was just very quick. I got this trike for Sophia, this will help me losing some weight while using that handle.

My daughter has a shirt that says,"Shop till I drop." I enjoy shopping too.
