LM’s Library Books, Week 2
Carrying on with our library visits as part of our summer bucketlist, last time LM convinced me into 9 books with a total of 10 stories (one book had 2 stories in, meaning two nights worth of reading). Plus I was away two nights meaning it’s been a while since our last trip to the library. Each book is stamped for a month and since we can take 15 books (I know, right?) I see no sense in going back until we’ve read all the ones we have at home. So we finally took another trip on Friday before we met Bee & her daughter’s off the train. So we…

LM’s Library Books, Week One
As promised, I’m going to be sharing what books we’ve picked up at the library for our bedtime stories each week. LM joined the library as part of our Summer Bucket List since this year is the first time I’ve had her off for the full 6 weeks so I was looking for free things to do.

Although we are now into our 3rd week of summer, this was…

Our Favourite Bedtime Stories
Today we crossed the first thing off our Summer Bucket List. We caught the bus into town and LM joined the library. As well as that I allowed her to pick 7 books (we could have up to 20 each!) one for each night of the week. Each week I’ll be sharing our thoughts on the books in a post of it’s own. As we haven’t read any of the books yet, I decided to kick off Little Miss’ summer of stories with ten of our favourite children’s books. Five chosen by Little Miss and five chosen by myself. First up, LM’s favourite stories; We’re All Going on a Bear…

Five Favourite Stand Alone Books
So it’s been a while since I wrote about books. The truth is, I really haven’t been reading. Ever since I got my Netflix account all I do is watch stuff on that when I get into bed. I think it’s because at that time of night I just want to do something completely mind numbing. It’s one of the ways I’ve completely changed since becoming a parent. That and I read a lot to LM. But that doesn’t mean I don’t still adore books, because I do. I just tend to go back and read old ones as it’s not as taxing on my brain. Because of this I’ve…
