Have you come across anything fun for his birthday that you want to stitch?

Oh, yay on the bookshelves!!! That'll bring the clutter down a small bit on the inside. It sounds like you've got good, solid plans in mind that you can put into play. It's always good to be able to get to the important things quickly.

I'm glad the yogurt came out. :) That's one of those things that just come out of nowhere and annoy us horribly.
