spring ahead

This weekend is Mitch's last chance to get in as much studying as physically possible before he tests on Tuesday the 10th. He's been working really hard towards it and has even taken time off to get in more time to study.
I got the girls out the house by 11:30 this morning and we stayed out til like 5:30, trying to give him a quiet house. We had fun! Ari had a short play rehearsal, so Lili and I hung out nearby at Kmart, then we picked her up and went towards Olympia. We went downtown to check out the toy shop we had seen. It was very cool and we were in there for what felt like hours. Even I was down on the floor playing and getting into EVERYTHING! Lili picked out tiger & cub figurines and Ari picked out a lioness & cub. I couldn't believe how cool the little store was-it was actually hard to leave-and I NEVER feel that way about toy stores. We were especially lucky that the bad weather had the store nice and not so busy. Next, we stopped and got them Happy Meals cuz they're big into the little pet shop toys that are in them right now ;) then we hung out at the mall for a while. We got smoothies, we spent a little time at the playing, climbing thing and I scanned a few stores that I'd like to explore when they maybe aren't with me, they get bored so understandably easy.
Since I realize we were gone so long, I'm surprisingly proud that I didn't really spend hardly anything today. I'm glad to have worn the girls out so that they had no problem getting to sleep with rush to bed for the clock's spring ahead.
