Book Basket:

 

 

This week we had a few more books than normal cause we went a bit over board… here are our favorites!

• Sisters by Judith Caseley this is a good one for anyone out there that maybe adopting or having a new baby. Its about a family that gets a new girl, and how they become sisters, and how they test the waters with each other. Very cute…
  
• Bear’s New Friend by Karma Wilson we thought this was a cute one, as it is by the same Author as Bear Snores on… another one we enjoy!
  
• Dora’s Storytime Collection by Simon Spotlight this one included 7 stories in one big book. Which was a huge hit among my girls as they love DORA! It also had a section in the back with some of the common words Dora uses in Spanish, with how to pronounce them and what they mean. Which was a huge hit with my oldest girl, cause even at the age of 5 she is very interested in learning Spanish. :)
  
• The Great Pig Escape by Eileen Christelow a very cute book about pigs… The girls thought it was funny. The cover had us very interested in what it had to offer!
  

Be sure to head on over to Happy Housewife to see what everyone else has been reading!

I am thankful for.... my close friends… they get me thru a lot even when they don’t know it!

From the kitchen.... Not sure, yet should probably look into that soon.

I am wearing..... Shorts, a t-shirt, and bare feet!

I am reading....  finished most of my books, and the others I need to renew, cause I have been to busy to read!

I am hoping..... for a fun filled vacation!

I am creating... nothing right now, to busy with everything else!

I am hearing.... a Barbie movie in the background… the girls are watching one, and relaxing..Sage is still trying to kick this ick!

One of my favorite things....quiet afternoons
