Both kids are napping right now. Both definitely needed it. There's nothing less fun than starting off the day knowing the kids need more sleep.

We haven't done much really. Made a trip to Wal-Mart and to the thrift store. I'd say the thrift store was the highlight of the day :) Accalia picked up this very retro toy from Tyco called Magic Copier. I'd never seen it before today, and Accalia loves it. It's a "real copier machine", according to the box. It requires a couple batteries and carbon paper. I haven't used carbon paper since I was in grade school or junior high and that's how we printed the school newspaper that I was editor of at our tiny parochial school. Anyway, you insert a piece of carbon paper and then the copy paper. Then you draw whatever you want on the top, which is similar to a Magna Doodle or Magic Doodle drawing board. Then you press the "copy" button and it whirls out the copy of your drawing! Accalia is just in love with it at this point.
