Today did turn out to be a pretty nice day. I guess we were all just content to be with each other for the most part. Storytime this morning was apparently the last one of the summer. Not sure when it'll start up again in the fall. Accalia seems to have the heart of a performer. For the past few weeks, we've been getting to the library just a few minutes before it opens. So we stand outside along with the other assorted people waiting to get in, and Accalia dances - does her "ballerina moves" for everyone. I'm surprised she's being so patient waiting for the fall dance class schedule to come out.

The plumber came later in the afternoon and took care of our leaking pipe. Looking forward to the bill, of course.

I was so excited to get two packages in the mail! One was a birthday present for Cole: this puzzle from Ecobaby. I also stocked up on Earth Friendly Baby shampoo/body wash. I'm disappointed that Meredith doesn't carry it because I love to support her. I would buy California Baby products from her, but Cory doesn't really enjoy the scent of calendula too much. Ah well.

Accalia's helped me discover a new author. Whenever we go to the library, she runs to the bookshelves and picks a bunch of books to check out. This week she was in the W section and selected a bunch of books by Douglas Wood. I've really enjoyed his environmental message books. And he's a boy from my home state :)
