Stepping Back A Little

I know it's been awhile since I've posted... sorry about that! Our trip to Disney was incredible! It was wonderful seeing my dad and having him meet Baby Girl. Indescribable, really. That trip was way too long in the making. It's hard to explain, but it made my life even more complete than it already is. It makes me feel better that my dad has finally met her. :)

I've been thinking about this blog for awhile now. For some reason I have not had much inspiration or desire for posting. I don't want to put up posts that I am not 100% into and that don't represent who I am. So I am going to hang up Book Fan Friday for now and probably not post as often as I used to. I am still going to post, but only when I am truly excited and inspired about something. Actually, we have another movie night coming up this weekend that I am excited about, so I know I'm going to want to share it with you! But I am wanting to concentrate on new activities, crafts, and recipes. Baby Girl is also able to do more and more different crafts and activities every day so that is exciting. With all this, I hope that soon I will have plenty of stuff to post that I am truly passionate about. Everyone needs a break every now and then to recharge, right? :) I appreciate your understanding and hope you'll be excited about the new stuff to come!!! ♥

Book Fan Friday

Let's see... it's Friday... that means today we are checking out of our hotel at Walt Disney World and driving up to Jacksonville to get ready for our flight back home tomorrow. Next week I will be sure to post pictures and stories from our trip! But right now, it's time for...


Since we were at Disney this week, I decided to post about The Jungle Book 2.


Baby Girl actually picked out this book. We went to the library to pick a few books a couple of weeks ago. Hubby came, too, and we decided to pick out 3 books. I found one right away, and as Hubby was looking for one, Baby Girl found this book, picked it up, went to one of the floor pillows in the kid area, and sat down to flip through it. We couldn't leave without that book!! It was so sweet. It is broken up into three sections which are the perfect length for Baby Girl so she doesn't lose interest. The pictures are beautiful, too.

If you have found a great book, children's or otherwise, I would love to see what it is and what you thought about it! I will leave the link-up open all week so feel free to join in at any time.

It's already Friday!!! I'm sorry for the lack of posts this week. Our travel dates got kinda messed up and we've been scrambling to figure something out. I'll fill you in on everything when we get back. I'm not sure when we're going, but soon we'll be at Disney World! My Daddy will be flying in, too, and I'll be seeing him for the first time in about 2 years. AND he'll be meeting Baby Girl for the first time! Holy cow I'm excited! So I won't be here next Friday, but I am going to have a BFF ready to post while I'm gone. This week, though, is Peanut Butter and Jellyfishes by Brian P. Cleary.

I really enjoyed this book. It is very colorful and fun, which Baby Girl loved. It goes through the alphabet listing some very silly things like "rafting red raspberry rivers." I guess that's why it's called "A Very Silly Alphabet Book." :D
