Just a quick blog post today while the baby's sleeping! I can't believe it's only a few weeks to Christmas... I was talking with my friends Robyn and Whitney over at Pen Pals and Picture Books about how we love Christmas because it's a time to buy our kids all those children's books that we are secretly wanting for ourselves! ;) My kids always get a lot of books for Christmas and birthdays and for other occasions too - the Tooth Fairy has been known to bring books, etc. Now that my third daughter has just been born (1 month old tomorrow) I now have even more excuses to buy books! Yay!! :)
You get to buy baby books again! I can buy them for myself (the girls would be insulted at their age), and I can buy them for my nieces, but it isn't the same. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt makes me happy just to pass by and look at my favourite children's books on the shelf. :)
DeleteI know! It is ALWAYS good to have a watertight excuse to buy books. I've been using Christmas as mine since September. I'm very impressed that you are posting with a one month old to care for too. Congratulation!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lucy! My mom is still staying with us to help and that's why I was able to have a little time to get a quick blog post done! She's going home soon though and reality will set in! I'm hoping to blog at least once before Christmas again because I have a cool Christmas-y book I want to show.
DeleteI am totally guilty of buying books for my kids but it's really for me :P I am sure I saw that book you are featuring today. I have this vague recollection of seeing the pictures before but I probably forgot about it LOL
ReplyDeleteI love buying kids books and reading about them on other people's blogs. Storybooks friends is really pretty.
ReplyDeleteI’ve just awarded your blog a Liebester Award (see full details on my blog). I hope you have fun with it. Barbara.
So fun! Thanks again Barbara! :)
DeleteYES!!! I was just going through all the books I have to wrap today... I can't wait to read all our (my) new books!!! how's 1month old baby?
ReplyDeleteHi Robyn! Baby Brielle is doing well - she has a condition we had to see a specialist about but she's going to be ok. How's your baby?? How old now? :)
