He is so cute! Awwww! I love how he really
looks like he's trying to do it!
What book is that? Alyvia has a little
library started already, but of course she
only slaps at the pages. I read to her
often, though. I really hope I can teach
her to love reading as much as I do. I
have these daydreams of taking my little
.alyvia to the library and letting her
pick out books!
*sigh* books are awesome.

thanks girls!
he actually turns the pages and examines
the pictures, i thought that seemed a
little advanced for 5 months but i don't
know.
laura, i really want him to have a love of
books too. i started buying books for him
when i was pregnant because i worked at a
toy store that had an awesome book
selection and i got them for 40% off. the
book he's looking at here is "the pigeon
has feelings too" by mo willems. we have
all of mo's books, they're awesome and the
pigeon books are hilarious!

the examining is normal ..my son does it
too with books..he tries to flip the pages
but finn has great control of his hands.
great motor skills!

I really want to get the .beatrix .potter
books for .alyvia. We picked up one the
other day from .books a .million, but only
because it was on clearance. Right now
she's more at a "oooh colors" stage than
"oooh bunny". That and "I think I shall
slap this! Hmm, different noise. Now I
shall slap this!"
.i've never heard of .mo .willems. I'll
have to check him out!

Mia is all about slapping things....lol
she loves it....and if you have really big
boobies (unlike me) she will bang away.
LOL It reminds me of the wild wild west
movie. lol it's funny.
Ummmm "b" he is darling.....what a
handsome reader he is.

i love reading and i really want finn to
love it too. nick reads to him every
night, it's part of his bedtime routine,
and he really seems to enjoy it. we have
tons of books and i'm going to teach him
to respect them. i used to babysit these
kids and every one of their books had
scribbling in them or pages torn and
that's just not cool with me.
we don't have any bath books but i know
the store i used to work at has them so
maybe i'll pick one up next time i'm
there. thanks for the suggestion!

I'm the *same* way! The other day, .baron
was reading her a peanuts boook and she
grabbed the cover page and tried to turn
it. WHen she did, it ripped and I got
pissed!! It was an accident, but it hurt
my heart!
Thank .god it was just the cover sheet and
I could tape it!!
We got her this .safari book called "peek
a boo safari" from the zoo, but it's a
"lamaze" brand! She looooooves it!! ANd
you can peek your face through each
page!!!
I also got her this book that you can snip
a lil pic of the baba and replace it. It
has a lion face, zebra, etc. and it's all
.oni's pic!!!!

able to turn the pages like that. Way to
go .finn!!
