Will Walk for Books







We walked to the library yesterday after lunch. Buby thinks he owns the place. Specifically, he thinks he owns all the mouse, moose and pig books inside. Of course, he knows that we borrow + share with others, but he doesn't believe in term limits. It's cute. So, again, we walked out with everything there by Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond. I thought about buying him the treasury collection for Christmas, which I believe has his favorite four plus a few others. But what's the fun in that?









If you Give a Pig a Party

If you Give a Moose a Muffin

If you Give a Pig a Pancake

If you Take a Mouse to the Movies

If you Take a Mouse to School

If you Give a Mouse a Cookie









When Buby walked up to the counter with his stack of six, he said to the librarian...


Buby: "I'm wearing a very colorful scarf today."


Librarian: "Yes, you are."


Buby: "And I have a red shirt, a colorful scarf, and black pants for my winter concert at my preschool. I'm so CITED!"



He's so proud of that colorful scarf. The school sent home a note last week saying that all the children in Buby's class should wear red shirts, dark pants, and a colorful scarf to the winter recital. We searched high and low for a kid scarf in February. Finally we found one ~ one that is so Buby ~ at Old Navy for just $4. Score!


P.S. The visor is just Buby being his silly self. He wanted to wear it out, and I told him it wasn't warm enough. So he threw his winter hat on top.

I love that scarf. Can't wait to see concert pictures. We have that Laura Numeroff/Felicia Bond treasury. G is big into those anthology books. She has several. They almost seem to big for her to lug around, but she does. My favorite is the Pig/Party story.

I give you credit for walking in this weather. The scarf is so Buby!

My favorite is Moose/Muffin. Second favorite is Pig/Party. Such a good little series.


It was so sunny yesterday. It felt great to walk outside, and Buby thinks every little mound of snow is a BIG MOUNTAIN! So he had a blast. Bleu giggled the entire way watching her brother hop.
