That "Don't Settle" Attitude!

I woke up really early today. I had to take out the trash, and I was excited about going to the store to shop for the baby. Kandis and I looked at some baby items earlier in the marriage, but now it's for real... a baby is coming in seven months! Although we decided that we would just window shop, I had all intentions on buying SOMETHING today. I brought my camera to document the day, but Kandis convinced me that I couldn't take my camera in the store, so I decided to use my cellphone. (Equipped with a camera).

Throughout the visits to USA Baby and the Baby Depot inside Burlington Coat Factory I secretly took a few pictures.

As usual, Kandis was confident in her selections with each sales associate. She was unwilling to compromise. That's one of millions of reasons why I love Kandis, she has that "don't settle" attitude. I mean, if she wants it, she tells you. And since this is God's gift to us, why settle for less. He has all riches! I could go on and on about God's blessings. And you should have seen the sales associate at USA Baby after she asked,"What's your budget?" and we responded,"Price is no object." She stayed with us throughout our stay despite all of the other customers coming into the store. Kandis picked out a wonderful looking crib and changing table-dresser set from USA Baby.

Once we arrived at Burlington Coat Factory, I think Kandis was picking up on my desire to at least buy something. I picked up a rug... no. There was a bag full of accessories...no. Kandis suggested a book... I looked at it...no. As much as I wanted to buy something, I didn't want to get just anything. I guess Kandis' "don't settle" attitude has finally rubbed off on me. (Especially when it comes to my child.)
