Together Book Store
I took the girls with me when I took the car into Midas for an exhaust issue, so that we could go to the bookstore next door together. It's the Together In Him bookstore, which they've been to a couple of times before. (Once with Nonna last summer when the car was at Midas for work.) Enzo and I sat on the comfy leather couch while the girls - and Enzo - had a snack and then we hit the restroom for potty time and a diaper change.
After we came out, Zoë immediately saw these dolls, I forget what they're called but they remind me of the American Girl dolls. She asked if we could get one and when I informed her that we weren't going to be buying one of those she said, "But they have different clothes, and I could change her outfit". Both girls were happy to see that there was a bean bag area set up and they got to watch Gigi's big sneeze, though only about 10 minutes of it. When I told them it was time to go check on the car Zoë said, "You go check on the car, we'll watch Gigi." After realizing that I meant I'd actually be needing to leave the store, she begged to come back and watch the rest of it after we got the car. I explained that they were only a little ways into the movie and there was a whole other episode, so that we didn't have time to stay and watch it. Abby said, "Well, now you know that we like that Gigi movie." Right, just in case I needed some hints FIVE months before their birthday. Zoë's already planning for the next time we take the car to Midas.
