Big Girl Seat

Baby Bella climbed up on
a big girl chair for the first time...
{without a booster seat}
&& started eating her ricecake.

No, I never taught her how
& as I watched her
experience some difficulty
climbing up on something
that high...
I realized how strong-willed she is.

It's unbelievable how
something so little
       {like climbing on a chair}
can be such a big deal
   in a Mother's eyes.

I truly cannot believe how much
my little baby Bella is
           growing.

It continues to amaze me everyday.

Scholastic Schmaltz

I have to admit
I was a little book hoarder
throughout my school years.

Notice I said hoarder
       {not bookworm}
I hardly ever read all the books I purchased.

Terrible huh?!

Anyways!
I would always be so excited
when book orders came out
& I could flip through the mini catalog
circling all the ones I wanted my parents
to buy for me to read.

I feel like I'm in first grade again.

Totally happy Momma.
You can bet Bella's gonna get some books
from her daycare book order
at age 17 months...

Just because Mommy is
excited to flip through the mini catalog
circling all the books
she wants to read to her
little baby girl.

Now I wanna know...
{What are some of your favorite books as a child?!}

How about Chicka Chicka Boom Boom?! :)
