Time to Clean the Office

I’ve been cleaning the office at glacial speed ever since my very first vlog of 2016. Well, it is time to heat things up and get the office cleaned and ready for a visit from my in-laws. They arrive the week after next and I don’t think that a futon full of toys is going to be too comfortable.

I had few hours after waking up from my morning’s nap to get things moving. I packed up the desk and then cleaned off the table. I found a few things that I hadn’t realized that I had and was able to work on a few other things.

I have a couple of consumer grade drones and one of them doesn’t work. I’ve been hanging on to it for god knows why. I finally cannibalized the one that no longer works for parts and replacement parts on the other one. I may be able to use the parts to repair the other drone that I have as well. We’ll see if I can get it fixed.

Tonight I read Andrew a new book by Mo Willems called The Thank You Book. this is the 25th and final book about Elephant and Piggie. It is a very cute book. I enjoyed reading it to Andrew and he liked it a whole lot.

Review – Pigeon Presents Mo on the Go App

001

Before a few months ago I had no idea who Mo Willems was. We were sent three of his pigeon books and now, he’s one of my favorite children’s book authors. He’s funny, whimsical and has a fantastic illustration style that is simplistic yet conveys so much. We recently went to the Eric Carle Museum and there was a Mo Willems installation. We got to see a bunch of great art from Mo as well as a fun video telling us a bit more about him. We had a fantastic time. On the way there Eva played with my iPad and the Mo Willems: Mo on the Go App (App was prodived to us for review). This app is pretty fantastic. Allison has admitted to playing Dream Drive often. Dream Drive is all about letting that Pigeon drive the bus to pick up all of the little chicks and avoid the mad cow. Believe me, it is fun and funny.
