Favorite Reads

Happy Monday all!  At least once a week Coops & I make a trip to our local library to check out a few books from the children's section (& maybe one for me, I just finished Revenge Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger for the second time- such a good end-of-summer read!!).  

Our library also has a great under two playgroup on Fridays that we just started going to which has been great for getting Cooper around a few babies his own age without sending him to daycare yet, & an easy way for me to meet a few other SAHMs in the area.


I add all of our favorite library reads, & a few DIY activities that go with them, to a board on Pinterest (check it out here), so we can remember what to pick up on the next run to our local bookstore, R.J. Julia.  

We're also HUGE Eric Carle fans, in case you couldn't tell; The Hungry Caterpillar, The Very Quiet Cricket & The Very Lonely Firefly are current favorites.  Especially those last two that make noise or light up on the last page, Coops just can't get enough.

Little Green Peas by Keith Baker is another goodie, with only a few words & lots of colors Coops is beyond excited every time we sit down with it. Plus every time we look at the pages I notice something new that we can chat about.


Nearly ever afternoon we head to the backyard with blankets, our Bassador- Scooter & a bag of books.  We'll need to find a cozy spot to replace the lawn in a couple months when the air turns crisp but I'm super excited to turn a corner of Cooper's room into his own library with wall bookshelves, cozy seats & toy baskets <3




What are some of your favorite books?  I'd love to hear your home library must haves for baby, or mama!
