One of the many visions I had while pregnant was of me and my baby spending hours together snuggled under a blanket reading. I pictured him patiently turning the pages, enraptured by every word. Hmmm, another pregnancy vision that did not come to reality (along with making all of his food from scratch and feeding him only organic...yea right...who has the time?). Instead, my little guy decided early on that the best part of the book was the last page and he would turn the pages as fast as he could until he got there! Meanwhile, I am reading every other page of "Guess how much I love you" at mock 10 speed to try and keep up. This assumes he would actually sit in my lap for the entire book...which was rarely the case! ;) All of this changed this week. I don't know if it is temporary, but Spencer is suddenly totally into his books! If there is a pile nearby, he will hold up one after the other (saying "ga"..his version of "I want that") until I have finished the pile. At that point, the game starts over. I am so excited about his new interest that I don't mind reading "Hop on Pop" (for the 10th time in a row). Ask me next week!
So much fun... ;)
