Plastic eggs filled by me and Jonathan playing the role of the Easter Bunny: 40
\nPeeps microwaved: 0 (they were chocolate-dipped, too messy)<\/p>\n

People sleeping in my mom’s extra bedroom the one night we allowed a sleepover: 4
\nTimes Gus and his cousin woke up (and woke us up): too many to count<\/p>\n

Inches of snow predicted for the day we drove from DE to DC: 6
\nInches achieved: 4ish in DE, less as we got there, just raining in DC<\/p>\n

Days I attended the US Dept of Education’s Institutional Services grants Project Directors’ Conference: 2.5

\nMuseums visited by me: 2 (Postal Museum, National Zoo)<\/p>\n

Sleepy pandas spotted at the zoo: 1, snoozing mostly behind a log
\nSpazzy Asian short-clawed otters spotted at the zoo: about 12 (OMG so cute and funny!)<\/p>\n

\nHours of 6th grade homework that awaited us upon return from parts south: approximately 8
\nDays until the standardized tests are over: 19<\/p>\n

Most surprising (in a nice way) part of the break: watching Adventure Time *live* in the hotel in DC! Very fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
