Bedtime reading

I love children's storybooks.  I love their simple plots and colorful illustrations.  Now that we're going to have a baby soon, I'm keeping my eyes peeled for some new ones to add to my collection.  Hubby recently spied this book on Amazon.

It contains beautiful illustrations and lyrical verses like

The cats nestle close to their kittens now.
The lambs have laid down with the sheep.
You're cozy and warm in your bed, my dear
Please go the f*ck to sleep.

Hmm, to buy or not to buy?  It is on sale...

Here's looking at you, kid

My glasses finally arrived.  Now I can see and drive again!

You know what they say...

"April showers bring May flowers"

But since it snowed here two days ago, perhaps the Michigan saying should be
"April snow showers bring May flowers."

Hubby and I are having a tough time believing that Spring is actually coming.  I'm longing for the days when I can shed my coat and expose my pale arms to a warm and bright sun.  Here are two of hubby's "Almost spring" outfits:

Nothing says spring like a nice jean jacket

White on white on white. 

We're having a boy!

Hello!  I'm  made of frogs and snails and puppy-dogs' tails.

Weird weekend

We had some weird sightings this weekend.  Here are some photos documenting these strange incidences:

This cat-like creature emerged from the griddle

Tomato?  Or brain?

Finally!  A photo to prove to hubby that Big-bird does exist!
