Don't Let the Baby Drive the Bus

We got up early on Saturday (early is a relative term) and went to Children's Bookworld in Ardmore to see Mo Willems. Hallie actually had to wake Oly up to feed her before we left, a rare occurrence. Here she is barely keeping her eyes open, wishing she had a few more hours sleep.



Here is Mo reading his new book, while simultaneously glaring at me for taking his picture (I didn't realize it until I saw the picture). I expected a children's book author to be jolly and friendly, but Mr. Willem was wound a little tight. Nevertheless, his new book is very good, and we got him to sign a copy for Oly, along with three other books.


Afterwards we walked across the street to Harper's old stomping grounds. It was chilly and the pond had frozen, just the way we like it. Hallie and I reminisced...


...Oly didn't see what the big deal was. She'll understand when she gets a puppy someday.



Afterwards we grabbed some lunch, and Oly resumed her favorite activity. Check out her stylish jean jacket!

Here is a picture just to prove that she is awake sometimes, although you can see she is prepping for another bout of snoozing.
