Summer Reading


We've been busy adding to our home library.  Some of our newest favorites are listed above- it's been fun to graduate to some more story-based books such as The Little Island, but picture books with flip-up pictures are still in heavy rotation.

1) Colors
2) Llama Llama misses mama
3) Pancake, pancakes!
4) The Little Island
5) Oh, baby! Go, baby!
6) Trucks

16 months

A snapshot of 16 months: 

Tumbles of curls 
Infectious laughter
Innately adventurous 
Board-book enthusiast 
Loquacious, although not entirely understandable 
Friendly in a wave-at-everyone-I-see kinda way
Inhabits 2 speeds- slow and tenderly affectionate and full-speed ahead
Announces every airplane that flies over our house
Music-loving
Shrieks with delight for fire trucks
Simply can't get enough Goldfish
Would prefer to go naked
Loves pancakes, both the book and the breakfast
Independent spirit

Spindrift Road

The home we rented while in Carmel is just begging to be the setting for Disney's next movie.  Perched on a private lot above the Pacific, the 100+ year old "cottage" had charm far beyond what pictures can convey.
