One more hour until the local public library's spring book sale preview!  Today has been full of self-talk about restraint and budgeting, "don't get too excited and go overboard..." Yeah, right!

2yo bursts into the room with a costume on: "Mom, give me a hug! I'm Batman!"

A long anticipated sheep's brain just arrived in the mail. I put it next to the egg cartons in the fridge. Kind of surreal...

Anyone else celebrating Bilbo and Frodo's birthdays today? We just finished Second Breakfast; one hour 'til Elevenses. :)

Baby's first smiles! :)

Binging on homemade chocolate chip cookies and thinking I should feel guilty... nahhh I can enjoy this today.

Breached my pre-pregnancy weight today! *happy dance* Baby just turned 8 months old.

I got so much nothing done today, it's ridiculous. Nothing FTW!!!

Tardigrades are super cool!
