Latest Fun

Violet's favorite thing to do lately is to slowly pull her books off the shelf and sit with them around her. This activity only mildly annoys me because it keeps her busy for a good thirty minutes, but she is not capable of putting them back on the shelf on her own. Mommy gets to show her repeatedly through the week how her books go on the shelf.

  I am happy she can spend so long looking through her books. She turns the pages slowly and sometimes mumbles words or sounds she knows from the stories. Her attention span is really growing with books too. We are able to read "big kid stories" without her getting fidgety or wanting to get off our laps. She soaks up the pictures and points out animals and people. It is exciting to see her delight in books.
