I've been reading Launching a Baby Adoption (yes, I'm reading about a zillion adopting books)--the part about decorating a nursery while waiting for a child, which set me searching for decorating themes I like. So, I was looking for Totoro-themed stuff and found Totoro knife-spoon-and-chopsticks set, a drinking cup, and of course lots of toys!
Don't even think of telling me you don't know who/what Totoro is. Just go to your local public library or video store and rent yourself My Neighbor Totoro. It's in the kids' section.
[added morning of 1/3/07]
Then I went and got a W&M Sears baby book on attachment parenting (some friends had highly recommended the Sears books as baby-care references) and just about had tears in my eyes picking up my first baby care book. And then while I was reading, a woman came up to the desk with a baby carrier asking if we had Microsoft. I helped her with the computer and she took the cover off the carrier (it was freezing outside!) to reveal her 7 week old son, who blinked blearily and opened his eyes as if to say "where the heck am I?" I said, "Hello! You're in the library for your first time!"
I am too sentimental for words.
