Late nights.

When it's Luke's late night to work 

the boys & try to find something to do to pass the time.  

Now that the weather has been a little 'nicer' we decided it was time

to venture out & visit the library & grab a bite to eat.

So after naptime I informed them we were going out on the town.

They said no at first, but then I told them they read so many books

that the library will give them a book bag.

After that they were sold & so excited to get there that I was summoned

to drive to the library first! 

I walked in (the boys ran) & they headed straight for the librarian

to request their special bag.

(Another cheap reusable bag that I get to throw as soon as they're not looking!)

They filled up their bags with DVD's, books & read a longs (with complimentary cassette of course).

Thanks to grandma Elois we received her donated cassette player

& the boys have no clue that those buggers are a thing of the past.

And that's just how I want it, because at the library...the cassettes are always available to check out!

We did go high class with the DVD's during this visit though.

 Here's the loot we came home with.

I know...let's hope I can keep track of all these books.

After the library the boys voted to go to McD's for some nuggets.

While I was ordering I told them I wanted 2 girl happy meals.

Then they both started yelling, "we're boys mom, not girls!"

I explained that in order to get the barbie toy I needed to say "girl".

They said, "oh, okay!"

Haha I love the stage we're still in where we don't quite care about society's norm 

of what's for a girl or boy.  Let's keep it that way for a little longer please!

So they enjoyed their happy meals with butterfly bracelets that they LOVE. 

Showing off their bracelets.

And Vance stayed busy chewing on the plastic that the toys came in!

Just keeping everyone happy til dad gets home.
