She's a reader!

Laelia can't get enough of her books these days. She hasn't really been playing with toys, but there's always a book nearby. She reads on the couch, on the floor, in our lap, just about anywhere. And of course she has a few favorites that we read over and over. Right now they are Goodnight Moon (mostly because of the mice in the pictures with color...can you find one on every page? Laelia can!), Peek-a-Who, Are you my Mother?, and generally any books with animals. The one she's reading in this picture is about mountain animals and has flaps and textures and is just great! Thanks, Maga, for the wonderful book! In other big-girl news, we've decided to start limiting her pacifier use to naps and traveling...it's a transition to be sure, but we think she's up to the task. So hopefully future pictures will show her cute little mouth instead of the pacifier!
