Why do we not care about our desks, because surely because we are all not slobs at heart? The real … [Read more...]

Happy Nappers

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

  I know I have mentioned Happy Nappers before, but I just love these little stuffed animal pillows. Katie has the unicorn one and she lugs that thing around wherever she goes.
