Two Favorite Books

We bought both of these books a month ago, and they're AWESOME! We read each of them multiple times a day, at Brynlee's request.
First of all we have this picture book of stories from the Book of Mormon. We have the B.O.M. children's reader from Distribution Center, but Bryn doesn't like it yet. So I got this book that is even simpler and it's perfect! It simplifies the stories and has great illustrations. Bryn's learning all the little scripture stories and it's awesome. I totally recommend it for this age group. The second book that we love, love, love is Richard Scarry's Best Word Book Ever. I had this as a child and it's a classic. (Ten dollars at Walmart.com). This book has illustrations for tons of little words and it keeps Bryn's attention for so long -- sometimes we read this book for an hour straight! It's seriously awesome! It is such a great way to start conversation with Bryn. These are just a few of Bryn's favorite pages. This is the best children's book we own. LOVE it!

Your blog looks so cute! And the picture of Brynlee is classic! Hope all is well down there in the south! Have you been doing much art? I need to get in the groove again...

I love the picture of Brynlee at the top and I love the post about her eating issues. :) I also loved the "tricks" pictures. She is a doll! Thanks for the book recommendations too. I have a little while to go until Kyla is ready for them, but the book of words looks amazing!

Laura...I have your email but can't seem to find it. I have a question. A long time ago, you posted about being janitors for Halloween with Marie. Where did you guys get those jumpsuits? I figure with a belly that's about the only costume I can pull off this year. Let me know.
