We are newly signed up for our local library's Join The Hungry Crowd Read Aloud Program for the month of November. We got an awesome Eric Carle (author of the Zoo fave Brown Bear Brown Bear and others) book bag for all of Monkey's books and a great chart to keep track of our progress. For every 30 minutes we read, we get to put a bug sticker on our Hungry Caterpillar chart and when we reach 4 hours of reading time the caterpillar turns into a butterfly!
This program runs the whole month of November, but since we got a late start (and someone was too tired to fall asleep) we read for 30 minutes tonight. All of our selections tonight were from our dear friends and family who brought books to the baby shower, and we love to read the messages they wrote in the books for Monkey. The chart has us list all the books we read, so here is the reading list for tonight:
Scuffy the Tugboat
I Love You Through & Through
Guess How Much I Love You
The Going To Bed Book
Tikki Tikki Tembo
On The Day You Were Born
In less exciting news, Monkey slept through his first fender-bender today (in the new car, of course). Everyone is fine and the car is mostly fine but we spent a very long hour and fifteen minutes trying to amuse ourselves in the pouring rain on the side of the road while we waited for the police.
On a happier note, our camera has been found!! We will post the Halloween pictures and more as soon as we get it back in our hands. Thank you to our friends for finding it!
