Today we fully took advantage of my day off (Friday).  It started with a play date at Craft Caboose with Jamie, Andrew, and Audrey.  I was not sure how this was going to go over but I was pleasantly surprised.  Madison has been quite the hold me baby lately and this morning was going to involve crafting, paint, glue, markers, and DYLAN.  Could have been trouble.  The place was pretty cute.  You pay an entrance fee for the kids participating and then $1-3 mostly although they have a few that are $5-6 per craft.  Dylan did great.  He painted a train, made a crown and decorated it with markers, glue and fun small trinkets, glitter glue, and he made several scratch art ornaments before dissevering the paint rollers which he rolled on some paper.  And the other good thing is that they are open most mornings at 9:30 AM.  We were the only people there until we were just about leaving an hour and a half later when another little boy and his grandma came in.  They also had a bunch of toys in an area to play with while in between crafts.  Madison had fun roaming and getting into things.

After that we ran a few errands and Dylan insisted we go to Target so we did.  After that it was nap time until dinner and fun at the Magic House with a coworker of mine who also happened to go to the same high school as me but the class above and her two girls who are just a few months behind both of my kids. Amazingly enough I managed with both of them by myself as Scott was working there although I would not recommend it unless absolutely necessary.  It was work!  For both of them are way too independent and go getters for me to keep up with them in opposite directions.
