I wanted her to sign the card, but the librarian checkout girl was not as in love with the cuteness element as I was and asked me to please move along.
Her first library book borrowing set included:
- Baby daVinci: My Body
- Baby's Busy World: A Point and Learn book of baby's first words
- Touch and Feel Dinosaur
- Animal Friends: A Global Celebration of Children and Animals.
Baby book writers aren't much for brief titles.
We spent our full two hours at the Library pretending it was a race track. I'm exhausted. And I've decided that Oak Park Mommies are, generally speaking, unfriendly. I just don't have the Right Look. My hair isn't too casual, I don't run marathons in my spare time, and my fashion color of choice contains no color.
In other news: Kevin and I went on an awesome eating-walking expedition yesterday through Old Town, the Gold Coast, and Lincoln Park. I want to move back into the city so badly sometimes. I feel like time is moving by so fast and I'm stuck here in a black hole watching the earth rotate from afar.
Being a grown-up can be truly a drag. Got to go: I'm being asked to go touch and feel a dinosaur now.
