My newest book worm

For as long as I can remember Rylee has been a little book worm…sitting quietly for long periods and just turning the pages. Reese? Not so much. Up until recently, if you found Reese with a book it was either a) in her mouth or b) she was throwing it across the room. Never sitting and “reading”.

All of a sudden, something has changed. She will bring us books and sit down in our lap. She’ll carry a book with her all evening long. She’ll ask to take books in the car. She will sit and let Rylee read to her. And on rare occasions, I will be cooking dinner and look over to find her sitting quietly on the floor amongst a dozen different books looking through each one with great intent.

I don’t know if it was/is her go-go-go attitude or just the fact that we haven’t been as diligent about sitting and looking at books with her like we did with Ry. Probably a little of both. Either way, she has been taking a lot more interest in books lately {and not just as a teether} and I happen to think it is one of the cutest things she does.
