Our Reading Rainbow

Image
The best way to learn a language is to see, hear, and interact with the language consistently.  I have had it easy with a 13 month old who loves books.  I emphasize LOVE!  We read no less than ten books a day and most of those books 3-4 times each sitting.  I wish I was being over-the-top.  We have read some so many times that I have them memorized. I am not mad that my daughter is fascinated with her growing library collection.  Let's hope it continues as she grows and attends school. We thought we would share some of our favorite reads with you and why they have been so great! You're My Little Series - $8.99/Book 4 Books with a 5th being released in September 2020 You're My Little Honey Bunny You're My Little Christmas Wish You're My Little Pumpkin Pie You're My Little Cuddle Bug You're My Little Snuggle Bear By Nicola Edwards | Illustrated by Nicole Marshall These books are just the cutest!  We received a few as gifts and our little loves the illust...

 There are so many options now-a-days!  From diapers to toys to themes to photographers.  I have seen stories of people posing as photographers [yes, even infant photographers].  It can be scary in this day in age & you can only read so many reviews! We have had the pleasure of working with Photos By Alyssum three times now.  She is easy to work with.  Offers varying sessions for every budget even with limited mini sessions fairly frequently. If you are looking for days old to grown family - she is your gal.  Located in Castle Rock and willing to travel within the immediate vicinity. Clean, Crisp & So Much Fun!!

Getting Good Use

Have you ever wandered into Buy Buy Baby, infant/kids section, or other little person aisle and felt overwhelmed with the selection.  So much so-you second guessed every toy, playpen, and wet wipe that you had on your registry [or were thinking about purchasing yourself]? Here are some of the baby things we got the most use out of [and are still using 8 months in]: Baby Einstein Gym : $50 - What we loved about it was how it converts through baby's developmental stages.  Great for back play, has a tummy time pillow to help support while baby's feet tap on the piano, our daughter loves the mirror and other accessories that can be hung in a variety of ways, and then convert the piano for sitting.  We started our LO in this play yard at three month-now 8 months and still having a blast! Vtech Sit to Stand : $35 - This also has a lot of converting making it a great addition to our toy box.  We started using at 6 months as our daughter is quick to get the wheel...
