Bedtime! To be more exact, right BEFORE bedtime. It is such a great part of my day. Not because Kate's going to sleep though. It's such a great time because
usually she's so relaxed,
usually still in a good mood, and we get to snuggle just a little. :) And of course, there's story time. 10 points for anyone who can name this book! I think the 4th picture really gives it away.
My FAVORITE part of bedtime stories, besides the snuggling, is that Kate loves to look at the pictures and then turn all the way around and look up at me while I'm reading. Yep, definitely the best part of this day.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle is an all time favorite! Reading together is one of the greatest joys and gifts you can give to Kate!
ReplyDeleteExactly! That was one of my favorites when I was little. I SO love our reading time together.
DeleteThe Very Hungry Caterpillar is also one of our fav books! Your lil' princess is adorable. =) I'm a new follower. Found your blog on Kelly's Korner. =)
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer! This is actually a new book for Kate, but one that I LOVED when I was little. Hoping that she'll like it too! She loves to eat, so it looks promising since it's a book filled with food! Ha! It's nice to "meet" you!
DeleteWell I am jealous :) Haha I love these pictures and I can only imagine why its the best part of your day! Karson will not snuggle or sit still long enough to read. He grabs the book out of my hand and tries to flip the pages himself then get down to crawl and pull down more books off the shelf :) Oh how sweet Kate is! I am so glad y'all were blessed with some a wonderful daughter!!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I am enjoying it while I can, because I'm sure at some point she'll be like Karson and be too wiggly and impatient for all of the snuggling. :) LOVE your new posts & pictures of Karson. He is getting so big and has a big birthday coming up. :)

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to read more!!
Nice to "meet" you! I popped over to your blog and I have to say, I LOVE your new kitchen! I have to admit, I'm a little jealous of it. :) Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteI completely agree! That is a bittersweet time of day for me since I won't see my little man again until the following afternoon. But it is more sweet than bitter! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope work is slowing down a bit!
