Baby Sweepstakes

Welcome back from spring break, everyone!  The library was just like Lake Wobegon (quiet week), expect for the Thursday afternoon excitement of Carmel's baby shower. The party room looked beautiful thanks to flowers from Lora and decorating by Akiko and Barbara N. We had  yummy treats--both savories and sweets-- and a beautiful cake ordered by Aviva.  We played one silly game to see how many new baby names could be made combining the letters in mom and dad's names. (25 was the tops.) And we got to "oo" and "ah" at many adorable baby gifts.  Thank you to all who contributed in any way!

I'm sorry that many of you couldn't attend because of your day jobs.  There is, however, still a way you can join in the fun.  On the workroom table there is a calendar where you can enter a guess as to the actual day Baby Brunson will arrive and his/her gender.  No cost to enter this lottery, but there will be a prize for the closest guess!  (I've heard rumor it involves chocolate!) So make your guess when you come in this week. And we'll all wait for happy news.

Carmel's last day before maternity leave is March 22.  She'll be out for a couple of months of very important family bonding, leaving us to hold down the fort.... err desk! Luckily we have a super-duper part-time staff!
