reading nests and favorite books

When Jocelyn gets restless, I throw down some blankets and dump a basket of books out for her to pour over. I call it a reading nest. Miles has his Legos and of course his endless crafts, but even he can still be enticed by a reading nest. Today it was Jocelyn who settled in….

    We loooove books! Hands down best gift for any kid or parent. Thanks for the great suggestions! We love “Click Clack Moo, Cows That Type,” “Little Blue Truck,” “Goodnight Gorilla,” anything by Sandra Boynton, and the Pigeon books by Mo Willems. I could list books all day 🙂 I just ordered “We Belong Together,” can’t wait to get it!

    Most of Mem Fox’s books although I’m partial to her older books like Koala Lou. Good Aussie author for you 🙂

    The Hairy Maclary books are favs as well.

    A Canadian friend introduced us to Robert Munsch years ago and sent us her thrift shop finds of his books. They were much loved in this house.

    In a few years I will share with you some fab Aussie authors that write for children a little older than Miles 😉

    Betsy, my kids and I love books illustrated by Charles Fuge. I Know A Rhino has to be one of my favorites because my son loves stuffed animals. Sometimes I Curl Up in a Ball is also sweet.

The main parts of the collection are photographed by some extremely talented photographers across the country. Then MJC blends them all together to tell the full story of their (huge) collection. It’s an honor to get…

    Hi Betsy! I think I mentioned it on Instagram, but thought I’d make it official here – can I please have the info for your party to order online? Thanks! Also, where is the headband Joss is wearing from? I LOVE it!! Great pics of the adorable twins!

    Emina and Medina look beautiful! And the clothes are adorable as always. Joss looks so precious! Will she be on the Matilda Jane website

helping out

Jocelyn is such a little helper and wants to do EVERYTHING all by herself. It takes patience, time (especially when it’s the carseat she wants to do all by herself) and sometimes a mop and broom. Had to capture this precious time where she’s trying so hard to be all grown up. Here she is…

easter minis!

Forgive me for talking about Easter before it’s even Valentine’s Day, but I’ve got some mini sessions coming up with just the kiddos in mind. This is a great chance to get your kids all dressed up in their Easter best and get some quick photos of them before they get covered in Easter chocolate!… Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...
