When the cat's away...the mice go to Toys-R-Us!

Corey's short visit home ended early this morning. So the girls and I decided that we needed a little bit of retail therapy. We hopped into the car and headed to Toys-R-Us. Now, Corey and I don't usually take the girls to Toys-R-Us, due to the fact that our ability to say "no" somehow whithers away the moment we walk through those automatic doors. I'm not quite sure why. Maybe its the over abundance of fluorescent lighting. Anyway, after much wandering and deliberating, we walked out of the store with a new slide, a bubble blowing lawn mower, a new push toy for Samantha, and of course....a lighter wallet.

I must say that it was well worth the investment. Both kids conked out the moment we got into the car, due to excitement induced exhaustion, I believe. They woke from their naps, ready to play and I have barely heard an unhappy peep from the lot!

All in all it has been a wonderful day. The house is clean, the laundry is done and the kids are happy. What more could a girl possibly ask for!

Until next time...Cheers!


Blowing bubbles... Chasing them down!




Fun on the slide!




Having fun being a big girl!
