Day 12

It was a lovely sunny day here today...a lot of the snow melted away...lots of poodles. It's funny that 35 degrees now feels warm. The girls and I ventured out to find a post office and some velcro for an art project. Within 10 minutes of our house were 2 underground malls...nothing fancy - but food courts on nearly every level (~4 levels) and a pet shop (definitely Maggie's favorite part of the day.) We spent about two hours there and found a post office and some velcro. They had a store that was a cross between a home depot and a sears called Canadian Tire. We had a lot of fun in this store, too.

We ended this morning w/lunch at McDonalds. Carly was pretty excited to learn that McDonalds existed in Montreal...the menu is a little different but it has the important happy meal with the more important toy. We also got a blueberry muffin from McD's, too...it was actually a good bit better than the chocolate muffin we got at the coffee shop earlier in the week.

Mike went to his first ever pilates class at the YMCA. He was extremely tired and sore when he arrived home and told the girls that the teacher was tough and kind of mean. Maggie said "Want me go with you daddy...that not nice"....meaning Do you want me to go to that class with you and tell him that's not nice? It was so cute...then she added "Take me with you, daddy?".
