Are soo awesome, the ones that have the
stories with the disney characters. I love
em. I bought 3 today, they have alot now
then back when my neice was younger. My
plan is to buy them all eventually. But
now i think im going to buy them books for
christmas, since they dont have a whole
lot. Joseph loves me reading to him. I
read one story before bed and shut the
book. he opened it back up lol. So i read
him 2 stories. I got the red one, the
purple one and the pink one. THey have
like at least 5 more a the store but they
are like 18 bucks. A lil cheaper then some
places since we get alittle discount at
the px off of books . Im just happy
hehe. Then i got another one of those kid
seats that straps to the chair for
jordynne, i was going to move the
highchair downstairs but then i was
talking to jason online wich i was glad to
do since on th e news they said 2
americans got killed in afghanistan but
wouldnt release any information so i was a
little nervewracked.
Sorry for offtopic lol but also at the
post office a girl put up a sign trying to
get moms together to do stuff, so i took
her number and called her up. I might stop
by tomorow after my dr apt to go meet her,
she lives where my other "friend" lives.
she has a 4 yr old 2 yr old and 1 yr old.
So that is awesome. And labor day someones
coming to pick the dog up .

Wow, it sounds like you had a great day. I
love those Disney books too! My mom always
gets her grandkids books for everything so
I know that I am going to have a steady
stream of books coming in
Glad to hear that Jason is okay. How long
will he be over there? I know that you
have told everyone but I can't remember
very well.
they say 6 mths. but then again you never
know. I think when i talk to my mom and
jasons mom im telling them to send the
kids books for christmas. i want to get a
booksheld and half it filled with
childrens books and as they get older give
the babie books to local clinis or
something for the waiting room.

That's a good idea about giving them to
the clinic. My mom still has the books
that she read to us and now she reads them
to her grandchildren. She has a library
though so it is easier for her because
they aren't taking up too much space.
Besides, she has over 2,000 books so I
think that's enough.
wow thats alot of books, i love books, i
bought the chicken soup for the new moms
soul today and read the entire thing! i
have lots of inspirational books and
medical type books, not a whole lotta kid
books, i prob got about 10, the clinic
here used to have books and toys but then
they got rid of it so that kinda sucks.
but i packed a disney one in the diaper
bag, i got a new better diaper bag today
hehe, joseph poured formula in all my
others and its like sticky mess in them.
SO if we are in the waiting room i can
take it out and read to hime and stuff.
Theres a good book i bought its called .
its kind of a funny story. about a teen
that goes through a deep depression and
suicidal thoughts and goes into a mental
hospital etc i read it in about 3 days
hehe. I jsut started reading ot joseph
recently since he actually wil sit and go
through an entire story now!

That's great that he will sit for you.
Growing up we always had family reading
time. Reading was a big deal with my mom.
I have read most of the great classics. I
am not really a fan of a lot of the stuff
that is out there today. I have found a
few good ones though I usually manage to
read those fairly quickly.
yeah, i never seemed to have time to read
but lately ive been trying to read more, i
love inspirational stuff the most though.
Im a bad mom i didnt read to joseph much
before. i tried but he was all over the
place and wouldnt sit down so then i gave
up unless he brought me a book to read and
id read it until he ran off. But now his
attention span seems a bit longer But these books are
staying safe, i dotn want him ripping them
up or the dog getting a hold of one. I
actually only paid $14.39 for them wich
isnt bad at all i was thinking they were
like 20 bucks each, i might buy the rest
tomorow! depending on how much money i
have left i gotta go through my checkbook
and subtract all my stuff hehe before i
leave the house, cuz ill prob stop by the
px after my dr appt if i got enough for
the others I gotta pay for a
dvd on ebay for my husband some weird
vietnam movie, and degrassi season 4!, now
i need to eventually get seasons 3 and 5
and im all set . I still ask my
husband if ican order season dvds haha.
they aer only like 20 bucks on ebay
though.

yeah for the dog getting a new family! I
dont know what books your talking about
but there is a disney book club like the
movie club i was thinking about joining
but my daughter likes to color in books so
i think ill wait a bit. My friend jennys
husband is in the army and she was telling
me how when he was on deployment a few
years ago his unit got bombed and the news
told her b4 ne thing else. luckily he was
ok but some ppl died. i dont think the
media should b aloud to release anything
until familes are contacted, there are
certain things that are just private.
yeah it is nervwracking because i dont
know exactly where he is at in
afghanistan, i try to not watch the news,
it was on the afn news here.
Im not sure how to describe the books, ima
see if i can find em online though.
I splurged and bought the others they had
so i have 8 books total, read another 2
stories to joseph tonight too
. Im just happy
hehe. Then i got another one of those kid
seats that straps to the chair for
jordynne, i was going to move the
highchair downstairs but then i was
talking to jason online wich i was glad to
do since on th e news they said 2
americans got killed in afghanistan but
