Bookworm

Caroline LOVES books. Seriously, the girl would rather read than do anything else, including eat. We have all of her books in a basket beside the rocking chair where we feed her, and now she thinks she needs a book read to her after every few ounces of her bottle. She'll stop eating, push the bottle away, and lean over the side of the chair toward the books. She will even choose the book she wants! No kidding! If we hold two books in front of her and give her the choice, she will touch the one she wants us to read. And if we read one she doesn't want to hear?.....she either starts to fuss or slams the cover shut! She's a hoot! She definitely has her preferences. It is lots of fun to see her little personality blossom each day. In other news, the growling is finally making an exit and has been replaced by babbling! Ma,ma,ma; ba,ba,ba are so nice to hear! She still growls once and a while, but it's not her primary "language" anymore. On Thursday, she learned how to go from a lying to a sitting position on her own. Still nothing on the crawling front yet. She rolls and wiggles herself around wherever she needs to go. Although just this morning we noticed that she is getting closer than she has ever been to being on her hands and knees. So stay tuned....we may have a crawler soon!

Here are some pictures of our little bookworm and her favorite pastime:
