We've finally moved into a phase where books are for Reading, not for Eating! Daddy is particularly enjoying this phase. She loves picture books that have actual pictures of babies, not so much other books yet. We did get a "Millie the Cow" book from the library that she seems to enjoy, I think because of all the bright colors.
Her *favorite* book right now is called "All About Me." It is a board book that has different flip pages and things about body parts, and she's gotten where she'll mostly follow along with what the babies are doing. She also loves to flip open the pages herself.
Her second favorite book is "Cow Moo Me" and a close third are all the picture books like "Eat!", "Sleep," "Hugs and Kisses," and "Peekaboo."

Garage Sales, Baby Yoga, and Peek-a-Boo, Oh My!
What a busy day we've had! This morning Emma & I got up and went to Mommy & Baby yoga. This is the start of another 6-week series, and today was a full class, about 15 mommy & baby pairs. All of the sudden, Emma is one of the biggest and oldest babies there! It made me alternatively very proud of her being that big, and very nostalgic for my teeny-tiny baby who didn't move much.
We're also having Day 2 of our garage sale today. It's been much less busy today, but Emma has enjoyed watching the people come in and out of the garage. She even made googly eyes at a couple of the little kids that have come along. :-) She loves other babies so much! We have made enough to cover 1/3 of a week of daycare, LOL. Oh well, it's a ton of fun and it gets rid of some of our stuff. We'll donate the rest to Goodwill.
And last, but not least, a video! Emma's current favorite book is a picture book called "Peek-A-Boo", and it's a book of different baby faces and emotions. She usually loves it when I close the book, then open it randomly to a face and say "peek-a-boo" -- she'll laugh and giggle, and then we repeat over and over again. Of course, when I brought out the camera to record, she was her serious, non-giggly self. My baby won't perform on command, I guess!

The Grouchy Ladybug
As part of our bedtime routine, I'm reading Emma a story. We've tried a few different ones, but so far, "The Grouchy Ladybug," by Eric Carle, has been the one that works to put her to sleep.
Poor Grouchy Ladybug.... wants to fight everyone, but they're just not big enough. :) By the time we get to the last page, she's out like a light. HUGE thanks to snoopingmother, who sent us this book!
