Favorite reads

Off the bookshelf this week ...

"We're Going on a Bear Hung" by Michael Rosen - a classic for sure. The other week Cole was hanging with my mom and they went on a stick hunt, which ended when Cole saw a bear in their front yard. Yep, right there on Harrison Blvd. Ah, the imagination of a 2 year old.



Mother Goose nursery rhymes ... and he'll take as much as you're willing to read! This book is pretty long (like 100 pgs or so), so sometimes we just open it up in the middle and start reading so we can get to some new ones.



"Don't let the pigeon stay up late" by Mo Willems. Cole loves the pigeon books, especially this one. He seems to have really bonded with the pigeon over his situation. Shortly after reading this book for the first time, every time Cole would yawn he'd make sure to tell us that he wasn't tired. And shortly after that was when he started refusing his nap when at home (he still naps at day care). I'm not saying that the pigeon book is to blame, but I do miss the afternoon nap time ... terribly!
