Books!

Hello blog world!! I have been MIA for a while. But I am back and better than ever! Do you want to know why??? Well, we have lots of exciting things coming up. More on that later! 

Today's post is dedicated to my love of childrens books. So this is more of a mommy post and me talking about my little smarty pants. I recently ordered a bunch (like 10) childrens books from an Usbourne book party. I was a little skeptical because I had never seen these books in real life and didn't know what to expect really. I just read the descriptions and chose a bunch. I was soooo pleasantly surprised when they arrived! Worth every penny! But in particular I'm highlighting this great book...

(Sorry for the terrible photos) 

Yes. It's already a little beat up, but you better believe I would order it again if  needed. Kayden LOVES it, whenever I ask him, do you want to read your alphabet book?? He says sure mommy! That sounds awesome mommy!!! Haha. He uses it daily during quiet time, and I am proud to announce now thanks to this book, he knows all of his letters! I can open any other book we have and he will go through and name each letter in the words and sentences. He gets it right like 90% of the time. I mean, he's 2. I basically feel like he's a genius now. Haha. Well, he's not actually reading yet. Maybe I'm tooting my own horn a little too loudly, maybe this is normal for a 2 year old and he's just any average kid. But I am PROUD he knows his letters thanks to this amazing book! It's only been a few weeks and he's soaking it all in like a little sponge!

 It even came with a marker so he can start trying to trace the letters. We haven't quite made it to that point yet.. Maybe in a few months. Knowing him he would just try to eat the marker, or color on the walls.. I said I thought he was a genius right??? Hahaha. Well, he's also left handed for sure, so it could get messy using a marker. Will see! 

Each page has 1 or 2 letters on it, capital and lower case, and words and adorable photos associated with each letter! He loves to go through and say, mommy, is that 2 B's????? Mommy. Is that 2 F's?? Haha. He does it for like every letter. He's so smart, fun and learning new things everyday! He says full on sentences now! It's so fun to watch him learn and grow! Can't wait until Swayze is a little older and I can start her on this book! 

Until next time, which hopefully will be sooner than later! Let me know if there are anymore amazing children books I'm missing out on! We LOVE learning books!

Peace
