We have a Scholastic Warehouse in Raleigh so I get to go to their warehouse sale a couple of time a year. I’M like a kid in a candy store. I buy books for me, too.

And now, I want some popcorn. Also? I have fallen asleep many times in the middle of a post.

I loved the Scholastic book fairs! Now that my girls are in MDO we get the fliers sent home monthly. But I’m a used book store addict too. I can’t stand paying #15 for a book!

I love that your kid sews! Sounds like a hectic but fulfilled day.

I always wonder where all my time goes, too, and we only have 1 kid! Kudos to you for keeping it all straight with 5. :) Great idea about the book fair. I’ll have to remember that when our daughter gets older. I also loved the Scholastic books as a kid.

That baby is soooooo cute!
And don’t feel bad, my basement looks like an episode of Hoaders. I’m just waiting for A&E to knock on my door.

In reply to Rory. Thanks! She moves around FAST! It was tough to get her to sit still for a picture. And she refused to smile, too. lol

I love the Scholastic Book Fair, too. It was always such fun to look around and have all the possibilities of things to get. It’s awesome you made it priority to set some $$ aside for them to get something. Some of my most favorite memories are of special trips to the book store after a good report card.

I love Scholastic Book Fairs. My son’s is coming up in a couple weeks and I look forward to stopping over there and finding new books for him. Although I also tend to not buy books, especially children’s books, brand new. For kids books, I like to go to the library so we can get a good variety!

GREAT photo of Baby Jo… although I guess not so much a baby anymore… she’s adorable and that’s a great shot!!

The Scholastic Book Fair was one of my favorite things, too! I could sit and look through the flyer for hours! Who is that little baby girl in the b&w picture? She is so beautiful, and that is an amazing photo! I hope that tomorrow you’re able to sneak a little sleep into your day. :)
