We went out to eat. Annika wanted to sit at the bar, but I told her no. We sat down and she looked the menu over and said "I think I'll have some pasta." She picked carrots, oranges and a slush to go along with it. Then she said she wanted a 'dirt cup' for dessert. I asked her what made her think I would let her order all that. Her answer? "Because you're my mommy!" Duh! She was right, I did let her get it all, because I am her mommy. (And because it was her birthday):
We went to Wal-Mart
Then, off to the art museum. It was something of an express tour. It didn't go over quite as well as I had imagined it would. I don't think they were all that interested. Although they assured me they were having fun, we ended up practically sprinting through each exhibit.
The highlight? Not this painting:
Not even the giant corn on the cob:
Nope, it was the gift shop. I think we spent more time in there than we did the rest of the entire museum:
And because we didn't get quite enough shopping in, we had to stop by Target. Then off to Baskin Robbins before we headed home. I was worn out after all that! But I enjoyed spending the day with my girls. They are both so much fun to be around.
**And thank you to Karl for staying at home with the two little ones while we were off gallivanting all day. I thought he and Ian were going to get into fisticuffs (tm Grandma Goody) before we even left, but they survived their day together.
