My kids LOVE reading! When we make our Tuesday trips to the library we have story time (with songs and everything) and then we pick out books. We easily come home with 12 books, but have come home with as many as 20 books in one trip. I had to cut Reed off at 20. We come home, read all the books we checked out, and then read some of them twice. Throughout the week, both Reed and Eve look through and have me read them the books time and time again. It makes me so happy that they love books already!
Well, the other day (ok, this was mid-April), I found Reed and Eve like this:
Apparently, they think the children's books are a little too easy for them and went for the more mature books. Instead of getting mad that they pulled the books off the shelves, I watched them leaf through the pages and just smiled. Reading will hopefully play just as a big of a part in our family in a few years as it does now. We are off to a good start :)
April 23rd was a very fun day for us. We dyed Easter eggs! We had started on our little porch, but realized very quickly that it wouldn't work because little Eve hands just wanted to tip everything over! So, we moved inside to our table and things worked out much better. Our neighbor, Donna, came over, mostly because she loves our kids! She even brought some stickers to put on the eggs! It was a great adventure dyeing our Easter eggs with two toddlers :)

| Reed did a great job being careful with the eggs. |

| Eve just wanted to stick her hands in it. |

| Reed finally chose another color besides green and blue! |

| The finished product! If you notice, most of the eggs are a green-ish hue. Yes, this is thanks to Reed! |
