Anti-Head-Explosion Monday

If you are FlyLady aware, then perhaps you know about Antiprocrastion Day. It’s on Wednesdays. The premise is that, each Wednesday, you do one thing that you've been putting off for at least a week. Last week, on Antiprocrastination Day, my head exploded.

Consider my to-do list:
Go with Brian to the hospital to sign Ava's birth certificate. We somehow got out of the hospital without signing it, and we've been putting it off ever since.
Birth announcements. She's four months old, so I guess I should scratch that. Perhaps Baby's 1st Christmas cards?
Thank you cards for new-baby gifts. I wrote half of them and then ... I'm not sure what happened.
Write in Ava's journal. When Ben and John were four months old, I'd already written about 50 pages in their journals. Ava's? Not even started. I haven't written in the boys' journals for months, either.
Clean the house!
Do laundry!
Buy Halloween candy!
Gather brain matter and put head back together!

This is just a small sample of the things on my to-do list. So today, to preserve what little brain matter I have left, I must get a few things done.

In the meantime, in the absense of a beautiful, heartfelt post about Ava at the four-month mark, I leave you with a few pictures of her, in all her super-chunk glory, taken yesterday afternoon during a break from pumpkin guts. (That's me and Spider Man with her.)

Ava

Ava, Spider Man and Me
Happy Halloween!
