Spring cleaning

We've been busy about Michael Delving with spring cleaning and getting ready for a new hobbitling, who should be joining us on or about May 7. We've finished up the hobbitling room, cleaned and organized several rooms, cleaned up the outside of Michael Delving from winter, and are almost done with making all the arrangements for a home birth. Since none of these make for particularly inspiring pictures, the Mayor will substitute pictures of Boookie:

Reading books at the table (a daily after-meal activity).
Family picture by footbridge.
Boookie ahoy!
Running around the playground.
Dirty hobbit on the slide!
