This blog is all about my favorite books for early readers.
Reading with our babies is big deal in our house. Now my little girl is learning to read on her own, which means lots of phonics (our favorite phonics program is www.starfall.com – and it’s free!), sight words, sounding words out and lots of proud moments for her daddy and me when she excitedly recites a page on her own.
Recently I discovered my favorite hair product to calm frizz. Ever. My hairstylist, Tera Rae Stephens, recommended it when I told her I struggled with frizzy ends.
It’s called Oi/Oil Absolute Beautifying Potion with roucou oil for all kinds of hair made by Davines. The Davines hair care line creates products with sustainable packaging made from renewable energy sources. As if I didn’t love this product enough already!
I just found out about this cute Elf on the Shelf birthday tradition and I had to share with you. Elf on the Shelf does birthdays!
My mother-in-law called me all excited a couple of days ago…because she had just seen Kathie Lee Gifford interview the authors of, “Elf on a Shelf,” and she asked me if I knew that our family elf is able to visit on our child’s birthday?
How long has this been going on, and how am I just finding out about this?!
I L O V E getting holiday photo cards. Love shopping for them, love sending them, and LOVE getting them. I could spend hours online searching for the best holiday card designs every year.

My sister wrote this guest post today on LEGO organization tips. Thanks Suz!
I’m sure I’m not alone when saying I have a 4 year old that is LEGO OBSESSED. Maybe it was our fault for starting it all too early at age 2 1/2 (and maybe Daddy secretly likes building them too!).
We’ve been collecting the little LEGO sets for about 1 1/2 years now and every few months I find myself swimming in the little pieces. I think my son also feels a bit overwhelmed when he sees his messy bin of all types of Legos mixed together. And with a baby brother who recently became mobile (Lord help me), my fear of finding him choking on a mini figure became enough for me to find some order in the brick chaos.
