Books!
While Mom was here she did a lot of book reading and I enjoyed a bit of a break. Not that I don't like reading to the kids, but sometimes I get weary. And the girls have basically perfected the art of asking to be read to at the least opportune times. So I am switching laundry, or changing a diaper, or sweeping the floor and a little voice behind me says "can you read this to me?"
Sometimes I am glad to drop what I am doing and read. Other times, like if Matt is home, I'm quick to say "go ask Daddy" :)
And, like most book lovers, sometimes Julianna falls fast asleep with a book in her hand.
One thing I can't wait to do when we are in the States is GO TO THE LIBRARY! We've been blessed with lots of books here, but I think the kids first glimpse of a library might still be a tad bit overwhelming! So many books in one place :) We can't wait!

I loved reading to the girls - they so enjoy a good story! And Julianna is so close to reading herself - won't be long before she will be reading to her siblings!
The library will be so fun for you guys!! We love going and getting lots of books. You need a Leap Frog TAG reader. It is great when I can't read to the kids and they want a book read to them. They can touch individual words or it will read the entire page to them. All the pictures either say something or play music. It has been a life saver! Happy Reading!
