Together Tuesdays

Today did not quite turn out like I had planned:/

Furman University has a program called The Learning Lab.  They have toddlers/preschoolers come in and participate in their research studies.  S had done one last spring and did great and it was a lot of fun!  While there, they got information on C too since he, as of age 2, would qualify to join in the fun.  Well, since he has turned 2, we have gotten about five different calls asking if he would come in and do the same study that S did in the spring.  Last week I agreed to bring him in today with the thought that since it was a Tuesday, we would spend some fun time down by the lake feeding the ducks.  Well, in rained buckets today!! 

But, we were obligated to go, so we went and he did his study(although didn't finish because we ran out of two-year-old attention span!) and directly left.  I tried to salvage some of our day so I did stop at McDonald's on the way home - which is both kids' favorite, bleh! - and got them the delectable and oh-so-healthy Happy Meal!

S had dance this afternoon which left C and I had about an hour and a half to kill in the rain so we went to Loft to spend my $15 off birthday gift from them and then went next door to Barnes and Noble because it is just that awesome of a place!  Between the kids section with books and toys and Thomas the Tank Engine stuff galore coupled with Nooks with kids books on them, we had a great time!  It is amazing that at only two-years-old, C knows how to use the Nook and swipe his little finger across the screen to turn the page.  They learn so young and quick!!
