I almost died from adorable overload when I walked up to All Tucked In. They have style and taste, to be sure. A great and unique little collection of children's books, toys, clothing, gifts and bric-a-brac.

This store is small, so it's hard to ignore customers, right? Well, the two women working there did a great job of ignoring me, and I actually felt like I was being watched when my back was turned. I don't think I look like a crook, no crazy hair, visable tattoos or piercings, no oversized coat or bag to stash things. I'm just a typical looking mommy. But is crook is how I felt when one of the women started following me around shelf by shelf, pretending to straighten things, not even bothering to chat with me. I used to work in retail, so I get the age-old trick. I decided not to buy anything at that point, even though I was looking for books and educational toys for ankle biter #1.
