Isis' Favorite Books!

These are the books we read over & over at our house! They  may or may not be Isis' favorite, but we read them a lot, so I guess maybe they're the most familiar right now! Since we've read them a lot, she tends to point to her favorite people in them. It's so funny! I've been in the market for some new kids books lately! I have a running list of ones I like that I've heard of & read, but I'm always interested in adding to my list!! Please let me know your favorite children's books!

Who doesn't love this one? I love the end: "Goodnight stars, goodnight air. Goodnight noises everywhere." Everytime we finish reading it, I'm wanting to just tuck myself into bed!

We actually love all our Llama Llama books! We have Llama Llama Holiday Drama, Llama Llama Misses Mama & Llama Llama Red Pajama. I was looking for Llama Llama Mad at Mama at the bookstore the other day, but they didn't have it! Looks like I'm ordering it off Amazon!! Isis always points to Llama Llama and then points to the Mama & she'll either say Mama or Dada. I love it!

This book is just super cute! It was given to me as a gift from the Kindergarten class where I did my practicum when I was pregnant. It's supposed to be for my class when I'm a teacher, but right now Isis gets to enjoy it!

I love Dr. Seuss & I just love reading this book to Isis! For some reason, this book has always made me emotional. I discovered the other day that we have 3 copies of it. I think that's funny and awesome.
This was one of the free kid's Nook books that was on my Nook when I got it! It's become one of our favorites because Isis loves flipping through the pictures on the Nook! It also reads to her & she'll watch it like it's tv.

This book is adorable! My mom got it for Isis along with a little tea set. We love it because Isis' middle name is Ruby! We love reading it to her & dreaming about her having tea with...the Queen!!

This is another book that was given to me by the Kindergarten class I did my practicum with when I was pregnant. We have read this to Isis several times & it's the weirdest thing - she absolutely goes crazy for it!! She will laugh at every page & point to everything like it's the best thing she's ever seen! It's just a book showing different colors in the real world. The colors are really bright & beautiful & apparently it's just the coolest thing for a little girl!!

We also love reading to Isis from a children's Bible. We actually have 3 or 4 of them. Some were given to us by friends, one she got at her baby dedication & one was mine from when I was a kid. I love how they are written in kid's language & they've got great pictures! I still remember reading mine when I was little!!


I'm also working on a big wish list of great books I know about, but haven't yet purchased or had given to me from book-loving grandparents!! I would LOVE to hear your suggestions!! What are your favorite children's books?

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)

How to Efficiently Read Blogs

Have you ever been just completely overwhelmed by the sheer volume of blogs out there you can read? I have. Wow. So many fabulous people I'm interested in reading about! I love the stories, the humor, the pictures, the tips, the giveaways, the links, I just love it all! So I've found myself having to streamline my blog reading in order to better manage my time & make sure I hit the "must-reads" for me. Here's how I've done it: First of all, if you leave a comment on my blog or if you follow my blog, I will go to your blog & at the very least I will follow you on Google Friend Connect . This way the blog shows up on my blogger dashboard when I log in. I always look over the new posts that are there when I log in each day, but if you've looked at my Google Friend Connect page lately, you'll see that I follow a lot of people's blogs! So I had to come up with a more specific approach in addition to the blogger dashboard. This is where my Goog

5 Blogging Pet Peeves

Blogging pet peeves are obviously going to be different depending on the blogger or blog reader. I am not an expert, but I have been blogging for more than 3 years between this blog & my other one. So I've seen a lot of blogs & read a lot of tips. Here are 5 things from my perspective that will really help you as a blogger &  me as a reader. 1. Offer a full RSS feed Oh my goodness this gets on my nerves!! I don't know if people think that offering a partial feed will get people to click on their page more or something? But really all it does it gets most people from what I've seen to NOT subscribe or visit your blog at all. There are maybe 2 bloggers that I subscribe to their feed even if they don't offer a full feed & that's only because they email & converse with me regularly & in some way make up for the fact that I can't see their feed in my reader. So just offer a full feed.  There is some debate about the issue, but in every debate
