Friday Favorites: Books

I have been MIA for a while now. It's been a busy year around here! Eden is almost 1 now and I have been teaching a little preschool group in my home. I have loved it so much! As I research the topics I'm going to teach, I always try to find a few books to go along with the themes and we've found quite a few new ones that we love, so I thought I would share.

McKinlee is just beginning to learn to read. We've been working on letter sounds and sight words, but she loves being read to as well. Some of her favorites are The Grizzly Bear Who Lost His Grrrr!Max and MarlaLet's PlayThe Cow Loves Cookies, and Narwhal.


Addie LOVES books. She doesn't have the patience to sit through a long one before flipping to the next page, but she has loved these 3 books for a while now and doesn't get tired of them. Look and Tell Fairy Tales- this one both of my big girls love. It let's the kids follow along with pictures and tell the story with you. Little Friends Big Adventure, and The Three Little Pigs.


Here are a few favorites for the infant/young toddler stage: Peekaboo! in the JungleA Book of Babies, and Moo, Baa, La La La! -I love Sandra Boynton books!

A few of these books came in our Bookroo box this past month. I seriously love this subscription box- books that are not well known, all individually wrapped like a present for your kids to open. You can choose board books or hardback depending on age, and the price of the subscription is less than the retail price of the books! I love expanding our library and having a package for the girls to open was very exciting for them. 

If you have any other favorites for these age ranges let me know!

Baby Photos and Chubby Toddler Legs

I just have to share some of the amazing newborn lifestyle photos my amazing friend took a couple months. She lives an hour and a half away, but was so nice to come and visit us. I haven't seen her since she took McKinlee's newborns 4 years ago, so it was fun to catch up. I really wanted a light airy lifestyle session because with 3 kids 3 and under I needed easy. I wanted to capture the happy and fun of our day to day, and that's exactly what we got. I am so happy with all of them!

















Haley put a few more in her blog post and you can see them here. Eden is already 3 months old now and she's changed so much! I am so happy we decided to get these pictures to freeze that short time in our lives.
