What a great day!

We have been to the bakery, to the pet store and to dinner. Oh my! I wish I had taken my camera.(What was I thinking??) Jaxson and Isabella were thrilled to pick out cookies at the bakery. Standing in line they deliberated over their choice. Finally they chose iced cookies, with even more icing piped on top. Isabella's had a flower and Jaxson's a spider. It was pretty cute to watch Jaxson "talk" to his spider. He would laugh and poke his finger at it. When the icing came off onto his finger he looked at us and said, "Oh no!" We tried to explain that he could eat it. He ate all around the spider, the only part of the insect he ate were the eyes....what does that signify? hmmmm......
The in-laws were in town for a bit. I was going to make dinner but it did not pan out. hehe... Anyhoo, hubby surprised me by taking us out to Napoli's, a wonderful family owned Italian restaurant. I was able to eat their Tortellini Alla Panna. It was heaven! After the week of pain and only eating soup, this was indeed a treat!
The kids were so good too. Isabella ordered for herself, spaghetti with butter and cheese, no sauce. Jaxson ate their homemade Italian rolls and kept his normal yell to a low hum. Hubby devoured the spinach ravioli. Sigh....fun!
A few doors down there is a pet store, which the kids love. WE spent half an hour looking at the rabbits, chinchillas, cats, dogs, birds and fish. Gotta love the fish. Jaxson was enamored with a Moroccan Uromastyx. The little guy (the animal) would back up and look at us. He could see his reflection in the side glass and would scratch at it wildly. Jaxson found this to be great entertainment!

We are now going to watch the Bee Movie. My daughter has been after us to rent it ever since it came out.

Hope you all had a great weekend as well!
