This day could be like no other. So it started off with cupcakes for breakfast. Hey, you only turn six once ;) By 2:20pm (second snack time ) Aubrey 'string bean' Fischer had consumed 3, yes 3, cupcakes!
Todd and I both had the day off and spent it between the two classrooms. The girls had baked cupcakes with Meme on Thursday. Even Edie was excited to celebrate 'sisters' birthday. She had a special batch made for her classroom too. Thank you Meme! The girls had a lot of fun baking with you. However, the other K teacher stopped me on the playground and asked me why she was the only classroom NOT to have cupcakes. We'll have to make her class a special batch on Friday.
After visiting each classroom for snack time we decided to do something that only happens once in a blue moon. We made the drive to...'the toy store'... They had sent each girl a $3.oo coupon so we turned it into one our 'adventures'.
Those of you that have shopped with two 6 year olds and a 4 half year old know this kind of shopping takes time.
We spent TWO HOURS at 'the toy store'. They roamed every aisle, touched, played with, and pined over each toy, some we/I had never even heard of before.
Choices were made.
Aubrey picked out a camera. Talk about cheap! It's been returned, and she has a nice little purple Polaroid now.
Ray chose some tiny little toys that look like vending machine balls with little people inside I call them 'Twinkies' but I know it's not right.
Even Edie had some dollars saved in her sparkle wallet. She picked out a travel size 'Perfection' (my favorite as a kid!)
Then we were off for a family dinner. Chinese food. They were so caffeinated from the free Coke-a-Cola it was mind numbing, but hey they stayed awake for the ride home.
Then it was time for movie night. We watched Toy Story III.
Disturbing. Watch it before your kids, Please! (This is my personal opinion. My girls were not ready for the content) Poor Big Baby :(
Daddy made them a one of a kind zebra cake!
