Free, Fun Entertainment

The girls absolutely LOVE animals from holding to watching to pretending to be animals. Since we don't have any animals of our own (yet!), Rachael lives far away, and Jordan can't spend time at my parent's house since the cats might kill him we have to find another outlet for our animal needs.  We have ventured to the zoo several times this summer, but the free entertainment is visiting the pet shops.  The girls love seeing the fish, snakes, gerbils, rats, guinea pigs, turtles, mice, ferrets, cats, and birds.

When we can't be around live animals, their favorite pastime is pretending to be puppies.  Lydia quickly learned this game from Kaylee & will randomly decide to play it.  So while we're out visiting the pet stores, we let them indulge in a particularly upscale form of the game.  They have so much fun.  I have actually considered getting them a doggie pillow bed for their playroom or for movie watching.

  1. But you have to admit our house is way more fun although I will say I've taken the girls to pet stores more than once when we've been away. Gotta get your animal fix one way or another.
