The girls cute beyond measure (I'm partial, I know). But they can get a little, well, rowdy.
The library was good, but I knew when we walked in, it might not go great.
It's like organized books and a no-talking zone sets something off inside their little bodies - it's like they've been trained to act irrational in those situations. But I assure you, they haven't. Instead of thinking...
"let's quietly pick out A book."
They think...
"lets pull as many from the shelves as possible, because we want ALL of them. And then let's stop and get in a fight at the water fountain on the way out!"
Sigh. I have to admit. I wanted to tell the librarian (who kinda had a staring problem), "I'm just happy I don't have to clean it all up - I have enough of that at home!!"
Or, "what can I say, I feel like this was a successful trip even though we knocked over your Storytime display." I didn't think she would laugh though.
She was SO worried the girls weren't putting all the books on the desk to be checked out - and she kept barking orders at them when clearly they were busy taking stuff off her bulletin board. They're busy girls - and there is a lot of new territory to cover.
You know those times when you just want to tell someone to back off a little?
I had one of those moments.
What does she think we're going to do - shove 100 used books and DVD's in the bottom of my already full stroller and run for the door!? Sheesh. Calm down, woman!
Anyway.
Good thing they're cute...
What a group, huh? :)

I Think The Library Will Have To Get Used To Us...

Oh, Kate, you always make me laugh... :) Like my last comment, you found the courage for library trekking again before I did, but I HAVE been meaning to go. You've inspired me, and hopefully I'll go in the next year or two. ;) Just kidding... Maybe this week! My hubby is actually there throughout the week, so at least I have a decent supply of movies coming in. (He doesn't take time to go through all those books yet!!)
I will head rightnowrightnow over to check out your review. I've been secretly coveting one of those carriers, but SECRETLY, since my hubby would think I'm wacko, wacko for wanting another baby carrier after just getting a Sleepy Wrap months ago and a sling 1.5 years ago. He just doesn't understand that they all have their own place and carry babies different ways, lol! :) Anyways, enough for my silly-long comment.... Maybe because it's 5:15 in the morning, and I'm AWAKE, sigh...
Another thought... I think it's the name... Kate. We are a funny bunch, huh!? ;)
Love the group shot!!! What a bunch of cuties - how could the librarian be so impatient with them?!
Knocking over the display had me laughing out loud.... :)
