Eleanor is getting more and more curious about the world around her.  It is so fun to watch!


Our little Valentine needed a little  spoiling this holiday!  We gave her this book, these leggings, this giraffe, and a lovely tee from Jean and June!


I hope hope hope her eyes stay this blue.  Alas, genetics will probably turn them green/brown.  Also:  this was her third Valentine’s day outfit due to a series of lovely blowouts.


You guys.  I printed pictures.  Like, actually, physically printed them.  500 of them.  My mom was the best about taking and printing pictures when we were kids and it is so so fun looking through all of them.  I resolve to be better!


Reading to E is just about my favorite thing to do.  Books with lots of colors and almost no words are her favorite.  We love this book!


Today was E’s two month appointment.  I was absolutely dreading it.  Not only does it mean she is getting big, but it was the SHOTS appointment.  I brought all of her favorite things and I skipped the mascara!


Turns out the appointment was harder for me.  She let out a little cry, but they are fast and before we knew it, it was over.  Now let the extra cuddles commence!

Next week she officially turns two months!  Back to the dreaded yellow chair we go!  She will definitely thank me one day.  I am sure of it.

Have a great weekend, friends!
Erin

The House Girl
By: Tara Conklin

Good morning! It’s been awhile since I’ve written one of these. Mostly, because this is the first non-school related book I’ve read in probably a year. Oy!

I highly recommend adding this book to your summer reading list. I love when novels switch perspectives between chapters. This book, switches between a modern day lawyer looking for a plaintiff for a reparations lawsuit she’s working on and a woman working as a house slave in Virginia. Each woman unraveling the same story, chapter by chapter.

Definitely a page turner!

Happy reading and a very happy Thursday!
Erin

Current literary obsession: Carry On, Warrior: Thoughts on Life Unarmed
By: Glennon Doyle Melton

This has been one of the most inspiring books I’ve ever read. This writer is so real and so identifiable, you get the feeling that you are hearing yourself. I don’t care if you are 21 or 80. You will love this book and you will read it in one day. You will want to highlight every passage. This is a book I recommend rereading whenever you can. She will make you laugh, and cry, and think.

Please read this book as soon as possible and let me know what you think!

Happy reading,
Erin

My current literary obsession: The Silver Star
By: Jeannette Walls

So I am going to keep this short because the summary of this book horribly spoils the book. It has the same vibe as her other novels…you cannot put it down! A must read this Fall!

Happy Thursday!
Erin

Current Literary Obsession:
Garlic and Sapphires: the Secret Life of a Critic in Disguise
By: Ruth Reichl

This is such an incredibly funny book about a food critic who dresses in different disguises to avoid preferential treatment because she is a food critic. She felt bad writing excellent reviews of places only to have her readers show up and be treated horribly because they aren’t famous. It is so interesting to read about how differently she is treated depending on what character she chooses.

Bonus: there are recipes that go along with the story she is telling!

Happy reading!!
Erin

Ps. Stayed tuned tomorrow for another exciting giveaway!!
