Today's day!

This morning we got a bit of a late start. (well in the activity part not in the waking up part!) We came home around 9:30 this morning from our Shabbos hosts. The kids were really overtired from going to sleep late and waking up early the last two days so naptime it was.

After lunch, the weather was not so nice. It was very humid, and it looked like it was going to rain any minute. So we decided on another trip to... the pet store! For those of you who have never been, its almost like a free zoo! The girls were fascinated by the grooming section, watching through a window how a dog was getting a haircut. We then saw all different kinds of fish; big and small and all different colors.

Our last stop was the bird house. At first the girls were admiring the different colors and imitating their sounds. Then we got lucky. A worker came in with a lady who wanted to buy two blue birds. I figured it would be cool to watch... The worker slowly opened the cage, and tried catching one but a yellow one and a blue one escaped. Mushka was petrified and Sima was not far behind. We were in a little room with two birds trying to escape and we weren't able to leave or the birds would too! After about five harrowing minutes, another worker snuck in, and helped him get all the birds where they belonged. Phew!

 What a fun day!
