Daddy's briefcase has straps, buckles, snaps, and zippers, which makes it, in a word, wonderful.
Now I know for sure that John is my son. He hasn't been that interested in books for all these months, despite my hearing about other same-aged babies who just love to lay limp and content in their mamas' laps and have board books read to them. This week, John has taken a new, excited interested in books. He laughs like crazy when we read his animal books and I make the animal sounds ("the dog says woof woof!"). He lies quietly in my lap and sometimes even helps me turn the pages. So, yesterday I bought him some cute new baby books:
- Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks from A to Z
- The Runaway Bunny
- Who Says Quack?
- The Little Quiet Book
- The Very Hungry Caterpillar
- Farm Animals
New talent of the day: Tonight John successfully sipped water from a straw like a big boy!
What's Cookin'? Crispy Rosemary Chicken and Fries in my new cast iron skillet.
*but* they *always* go for the remotes, phones and cameras!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the outfit with the stripey top and olive pants combo! Neither of my kids really liked books until like a yearish or so.
ReplyDeleteSandra Boynton books are fun (they are very rhyme-y. Hippos Go Beserk is a good one.) :)
