A New Year, A New Look

I don't know where she got this smile from, but Ruth has been showing off a new "grin" for the new year. Maybe it is because she now has upper teeth, I don't know, but it is pretty goofy when she just starts flashing it around for no particular reason.

This Should Be a Holiday or Something.

Happy Birthday J.R.R. (January 3, 1892).

I think a royal decree is in order:

Henceforth, the date January 3 shall forever be observed as "Tolkien Day" or "Middle-earth Celebration Day."

So there.
